    This was a public execution.

    He was legally armed.

    They disarmed him.

    Placed him in handcuffs.

    Then shot him on the ground repeatedly.

      So I’ve been out all day and haven’t seen videos yet, but I didn’t know he was already disarmed. At that point what does it even matter that he had a gun, wtf. A gun has nothing to do with the murder.

          How does that even matter if he was disarmed.

          Let’s say that’s true.

          He was disarmed.

          Now the gun doesn’t play into shooting him.

            Didn’t you read what I said? It doesn’t matter that he was disarmed because they said he was threatening them with a gun. Your preference for facts has nothing to do with the reasons they make up.

      I think the only thing clear from the multiple videos is that he was not handcuffed. No idea why would you say he was.

        You’re right. I found a different clip that shows he wasn’t cuffed. The original clip I saw it looked like they cuffed him while he was on the ground, He tried to stand up and they shot him, but I can’t see his hands.
