Police shooting people.....

PJfanwillneverleave1

Here is a better article before all the AMT psychologists chime in. https://www.thestar.com/news/world/2016/07/07/he-just-shot-his-arm-off-the-startling-composure-of-girlfriend-in-minnesota-shooting.html
Trauma experts say her demeanour shouldn’t surprise those who’ve worked with victims of violence. Jim Hopper, a psychology instructor at Harvard Medical School, watched the footage Thursday and said her response was consistent with what he calls a dissociative state.

In the immediate aftermath of horrific violence, he said, victims don’t always sob. Reynold’s face appeared stoic. Her voice remained steady (“You told him to get his ID, sir. His driver’s licence,” she told the police officer). But it doesn’t mean she wasn’t afraid.

“People are literally not feeling in their body what’s going on,” Hopper said. “That circuitry can basically shut down. This is the brain on horror.”

Just the fact that the cop did this with a kid in the back seat is shocking and wholly irresponsible... not that we need any more reasons to be appalled.

I m shocked how relaxed and cool headed the girlfriend was during the whole incident.

Yep, there is a lot more to the story.

What fuckin' garbage that site was. Credibility out the window.

Let the victim blaming begin.

That site aside- although it was eye raising- this story is far from complete.

The woman's demeanour (as someone earlier mentioned) was strangely calm. Further, the police afterwards were still hostile.

This might be a case of racist cops or there might be more to the story.

What I would say is that it's amusing to witness the perennial 'wait and see' people already lined up, pitchforks in hand, and calling for a hanging.

Well there's not much else one can do in a situation like that.....the deed was done there's not much she could do to save him.....all she could do was to remain calm and do so especially since there was a child in the rear seat that witnessed this shooting. Oh let me add she was quite respectful towards the officer addressing him as *sir*

I've never had a gun pointed at me but if I'm ever in such a situation I'll just have show some GUP.

I think I would freak out if a cop just shot someone I knew/loved. I was pretty impressed on how she reacted.

Did you read the article explaining how this is understandable behaviour? Her kid was in the car - she didn't want to get shot too.

I agree there s more to this story than meets the eye but is that article from a credible news agency?

The article read more like the National Enquirer. His claim to fame is that Drudge picks him up sometimes. But I am a bit disturbed by some of the facebook images and postings contained in the article. I imagine there are important pieces of the story still to come.

Someone can read between the lines I see. I don't care about the site, it's what they found on the internet about the guy and girl.

Overwhelmed. I started tearing up. This guy's life is ending in front of us. Ugh. Too much.

This is tragic nonetheless but we come into the story halfway thru it...will admit from where it starts it doesn't look good and he was licensed to carry a gun, but in this particular case I definitely need to get all the facts

this woman's poor child...now that gets me

informed the cop he carried, was licensed. stated he was reaching for id. AS ORDERED. murdered.

anything else you want?

Are sure he was licensed to carry a gun? He supposedly had an extensive criminal record ... how are you legally able to buy a gun with a criminal record?

not the dude in minneapolis.

I've seen this video several times. I'm not sure we can just assume what the woman said 100% accurate. We really do need to wait for this investigation plays out. It's very hard to believe that he was shot in front of his daughter and girlfriend. Very sad.

Yes, but after I posted what I did.

I'm aghast as anyone, but my knee jerk reaction of complete condemnation of the officers on hand has slowed a bit. I'd like to be able to understand exactly what happened and what circumstances led to the shooting.

Don't get me wrong... it looks like a trigger itchy cop blasted a black guy for no good reason; however, there has to be more to the story. Maybe there's not? Maybe this is one of the grossest cases of police violence I can recall?

Also, should she be posting on facebook while her boyfriend is dying? Why not call 911? Put pressure on the wound? Something other than posting it to Facebook.

Well, we are all humans and react to certain situations differently. Some go into shock and can remain calm, some can just immediately freak out regardless of what danger that action will put them in. That woman Lavish I believe was particularly calm in that one of those four shots could've easily of hit her yet spoke clearly, respectfully and calmly towards the officer.

Or sob?

It seemed like she became passive aggressive.

Yes PJSoul... I read the article, but that is one qualified person's opinion on how another person could react in such a situation. The hypothesis might be accurate, but most people I have seen in these situations are far more emotional.

For the emotional types, how does the 'expert' explain their hysterics? With the exact opposite hypothesis?

I'm sure she was very conscious of what was playing out and wanted to show the world. Given the current feelings of black communities towards the cops and how they keep shooting people, I don't find this strange at all. She is probably just a BLM supporter. She lives in a world where she knows she needs evidence for these kinds of events. Because what if she hadn't filmed it?? She knew what she was doing and why, and it was a good decision on her part. She must be a fairly smart woman to be that composed and deliberate in that situation. If she didn't film it then the cop would have gotten away with it, and she would probably be called a liar if she told the truth.

Are you serious, her supposed boyfriend was just shot the officer is still barking orders. Such as don't move and the like.....if she tries to attend to him what do think the officer is going to do, his adrenaline is flowing he would have probably shot her as well. The best thing she probably could do was to remain calm, be respectful and remarkably record the incident as best as she could. So that later there could be something of evidence to show what had transpired.

I'm not onto any conspiracy theory. It's just an odd thing to do while your boyfriend is dying. I mean her initial reaction after shots were fired were to pull out her phone? Not to protect her child? Or help her fiance? It's an odd reaction. I would like to hear the officers story. I think everyone may be a little too quick to think it happened how she said it happened.
