It started with Trayvon Martin, then it was a another teen in Florida over loud music, there's the young father who was shot in an Ohio Walmart, John Crawford. Brown in Ferguson, then there's the latest a black man was shot in a gas station in South Carolina. Yes, you guessed it, by a white cop.
In that incident, the black man, Levar Jones, stopped at a gas station but was followed by State Trooper Sean Groubert because of a supposed seat belt violation.
The officer asked to see the driver's I.D. (the video from the Trooper's dash cam clearly shows) and Jones, in complying with the officer's request, reached into his car for his I.D. When the officer yells at him to "get out the car" but as Jones emerges from his car, Groubert begins to shoot him. Jones clearly puts up his hands and the trooper keeps shooting.
Take a look at the video, you'll see for yourself. The trooper was charged with aggravated assault. Now, the only reason why charges were levied was that it was all captured on tape, from the officer's dash cam. Otherwise, he would go free.
What the hell is going on with these cops today? It must be improper training, or is it?
I know some of you will have inappropriate comments to make, so let O' Festival begin...................

Rightly charged and rightly will face the music for this one.
However... , the suspect DID suddenly turn around and reach into his car, hands completely out of view. The cop had no idea what the suspect was reaching for, and the quick jittery way in which he did it, could be viewed as suspicious.
The cop barking orders caused the suspect to get nervous, and then he acted out in a nervous manner.
Far from any 'trend' as you suggest, though.
Just another isolated incident, as seen through the lens of a bit of hysteria.
( was that the inappropriate comment you were looking for ? )

Just another isolated incident ...
Another and isolated. Now those are two words that contradict each other.

Nothing "new" about it, it's always been this way, tis just by way of turning their intended surveillence society back around on them, it can no longer be swept under the rug as a "few bad apples" or "isolated incidents" no matter how hard jackboot lickers try.
I also wouldn't put too much faith in prosecution given the factual data in hand regarding how prosecutors softball the charges, often with some really bizarre legal contortions, since police-prosecutor collusion is part and parcel of the systematic corruption which allows this malaise to fester.

Have a look for yourself if you don't believe me.
As for the situation in question, the poor bastard never stood a chance, if he DOESN'T instantly obey, he gets shot or tased, and if he does, he gets shot or tased, how does he have an "out", I ask you ?
And of course, if the meteoric rise of reporting police abuse and catching them in the act (because, again, it's ALWAYS been this bad, it's what they are.) another problem now coming into the public eye is just how long and how often police see the occasional rape as a "perk of the work", and don't you just love what the suggested "defense" is...
Cop's Tip For Not Getting Raped By A Cop: 'Don't Get Pulled Over'

This following on the heels of that ridiculous obey-or-else editorial, there's a certain undercurrent here of backhanded admission that the police are bad actors with malicious intent, and while our corrupt and degraded justice system would never in a million years admit it, there is some legal grounds for shooting first as a direct result of these discoveries and admissions.
Remember, the Supreme Court itself has stated that due to police conduct, immediate flight from their presence does not constitute probable cause because people might have good reason to fear and flee the police.
So, disturbing precedents are being set, most recent of which is a guy who fired on a no-knock raid because they failed to effectively identify themselves before going all hoo-rah.
Actions have consequences.
For maximum irony, would be a case where a black man shoots an off duty cop who belligerently threatened him and cites stand-your-ground.

Don't forget a 22 year old unarmed black man gunned down in an Ohio Walmart. He was carrying a BB gun that he'd picked up in the store when he was killed. Actually, he'd already put the BB gun down when he was murdered by police.
This happened inside a Walmart, America's largest gun retailer, in Ohio, an open-carry state. Had he been carrying an actual loaded AR-15, he'd still have been committing no crime - except for being black, it seems.
Just another "isolated" incident, though. Just because a thing happens five or seven thousand times a year doesn't make it a trend. I mean, it's not like there were scary brown people beheading them or anything.
