A black man who was shot dead by police officers called to a domestic altercation at his Florida home was “executed” as he sat eating chicken wings in his backyard, relatives claimed on Monday.

Deputies from Broward sheriff’s office shot Gregory Frazier, 55, multiple times outside the house in Pompano Beach on Friday night after a 911 call from his sister, who said he was threatening her and her daughter with a knife and “breaking up the house” after a day of drinking.

Good one for breaking down those stereotypes...
 
Someone needs to test the water in Florida because that place has too many fishy occurrences going on.

Agree that he was an idiot, but being an idiot shouldn't be a death sentence.

I agree with the ideal here, but in fact, being an idiot SHOULD be a death sentence.

this guy would have been alive if he had simply co-operated.
now the world has one fewer idiot.

90% of the worlds problems can be solved with education. this guy is proof of that.

Sorry bro, don't have time to watch a 35minute clip.

I'll make a statement though. If a person is in no way capable of immediately murdering someone, they should not be murdered by a police officer. That police officer is no better than a murderer with a badge; and should be sentenced accordingly - and anyone siding with such an officer is devoid of compassion for life.

Alternatively, there needs to be a huge reform in how these officers are violently trained. There are great alternatives throughout the World.

Sure he could have got himself out of the situation... but the question is, "why should he have to" ... Why was his life threatened in the first place? < --- that is the problem.

again, I do not disagree. not at all.

the fact that from what info we have, it seems the world is one idiot less is also not something we can ignore
 
Whether his life should've been in danger or not in the first place is a moot point. When someone points a gun at you (whether it is justified or not) and tells you to do something, you damn well do it. I'm not justifying the cops' actions here, but damn man, use some common sense.

I also can't believe that he was sitting peacefully eating dinner when he was gunned down. Sure there's more to this than meets the eye.

Are you saying that he couldn't kill anyone with his assault rifle?
