Original videos
Chicago, Illinois, United States
Chicago police officers fired nearly 100 shots in less than one minute after Dexter Reed appeared to have shot first during a fatal traffic stop in Humboldt Park last month, according to police oversight officials.
The Civilian Office of Police Accountability, or COPA, on Tuesday released body camera footage showing the fatal shooting of Reed by Chicago police officers during a March 21 traffic stop in the 3800 block of West Ferdinand Street. Reed had been pulled over for purportedly not wearing a seatbelt.
COPA in a statement said preliminary evidence “appears to confirm” that Reed fired first before officers responded by firing 96 shots in a matter 41 seconds. The agency has recommended to CPD Superintendent Larry Snelling that four of the officers involved be relieved of their police powers during the investigation.
Mayor Brandon Johnson called the footage of Reed's death “deeply disturbing” in a hastily scheduled appearance at City Hall, where he was flanked by Andrea Kersten, the head of COPA, and Cook County State's Attorney Kim Foxx.
“I'm personally devastated to see yet another young Black man lose his life during an interaction with the police,” Johnson said, adding that shooting a police officer could never be condoned or excused.
Johnson said he spoke with members of Reed's family in the days before the video was released and visited the wounded officer.
“Both Dexter Reed and this officer could have been my students,” said Johnson, who taught civics at Westinghouse College Prep, where Reed went to high school and was a basketball standout.
Johnson said the officer who was shot came close to dying.
“If that bullet had hit him a few inches in a different direction, I would be here today talking about the loss of another Black man,” Johnson said.
Foxx said her office was in the early stages of investigating the shooting, and pleaded for enough time to complete a thorough investigation.
“We ask for your patience and trust,” Foxx said.

So he shot at an officer, he gets shot by an officer, the officers are racists?? I'm so confused by society today. This is an example of a scumbag who needed to be wiped off the face of the earth. He could have killed someone

Hard to dial in on the most interesting thing about this video......
is it:
a) The guys ability to try to drive off further and get out and run after their first 56 shots?
b) The cops terrible aim to allow the guy to continue driving and get out to run?
c) The cop immediately thinking his shot partner needed a tourniquet?
d) The cops ability to shoot from all sides with zero concern of friendly fire?
e) Other?

Check Washington post title - "Police fire 96 shots in 41 seconds, killing Black man during traffic stop". Now check how the dude is presented by to the readers:
You expected some gangsta? No, this is just an innocent kid, they say! US lefty media trying it best to create new martyr the same way they created George Floyd in the previous election year (2020). That is what media wants for US society - division, hatred and of course voting like sheep

They deliberately portray black people as if they are disproportionately killed by police, as if it has something to do with their race (not the amount of crime they commit). Not only that, but they obscure their backgrounds and depict them as absolutely innocent, slain for no reason, just of police brutality and not because of their criminal activity. Haven't you watched what was the narrative 4 years ago? The whole point about George Floyd and Jacob Blake was explicitly that they were targeted and killed by police because of their they were black and police just go and kill black people. Just check what Joy Reed and Al Sharpton spew for so many years.

Told you - leftist media has agenda to keep racism tensions alive. They weaponize every incident involving black people dying after "interactions" with police. The goal is not ending racism when you constantly talk about racism. You know why? If racism goes away, all those corrupt organizations dealing with racism will have to say close and admit they completed their mission, correct? Tell me do you think they have interest in "ending racism"? So the grift is real. Did you get your answer? This is just one of the division they promote, I will not get started on how much is invested in separating people on LGBT, abortion and what not else

To answer your question, no of course not. Even if you think you could take them one on one in a street fight, who needs the drama and legal repercussions? If you beat them up and the cops arrive, you will be charged with a hate crime on top of assault and battery.
If you lose the inevitable fight, they will tell the cops that you are a racist and use that to justify their violence against you.
You can't win so it's best to keep your mouth shut about their race.

From a medical standpoint, was the tourniquet too high? Shouldn't it have been somewhere before the wrist but after the elbow?
