The guy died and it looks like murder to me... I know that's gonna piss off you loyalists.
Guy starts to turn away when it appears that the cop up the hill opens up on him which then seems to prompt the "camera wearing" cop to open up on him.
Any other human being that would shoot someone like that would be in jail for murder. End of story.

Pretty much .
He had the knives in his hands so he was a threat and that is how they will get off...
Yes having knives in hand ready to slice and dice IS A threat... but at the point they opened fire he was a strategic threat not a tactical threat.
By Strategic Threat I mean one that takes longer term ( not in the next millisecond) planing and preparation for .
By Tactical Threat I mean one that requires immediate action.

I saw this a few days ago but did not bring it here in fear of cop bashing but because it ended up here i will add my $0.02.
This might be in the other link but i have not read it. The facts i know are they spent 3 hours trying to get this homeless man to comply with their orders. The homeless man is mentally ill and has spent time in jail and hospitals i.e. mental wards many times in the past. As you can see they did use non lethal force first in quick succession, they used the flash bang, a bean bag load and a taser all at the same time then let the dog go in. The homeless guy is dead in the end.
My observations. The K9 unit is what they use to justify the killing of the mentally ill homeless guy (so they say). To me it look like the K9 handler is a compete moron that can not deal with the situation. The guy was just flash banged, bean bagged, tased and had a dog let loose on him. Mentally ill or not what do you expect anyone to do after that? The homeless guy turns away from the situation and gets shot at multiple times and then "camera officer" starts firing another volley of shots because of a gang mentality. They fire bean bags again, "negative effect", what ever that means and then let the dog move in, again.
With a militarized police force like this nothing good can happen. All i see is a Barney Fife that has removed his bullet from his breast pocket and replaced it with a full magazine in a rifle without any fear. This looks like it could have been filmed in Iraq or Afghanistan but sadly it was filmed on our own soil. What i see is wrong and i think bryjcom explains perfectly well.

ALBUQUERQUE (KRQE) – Angry protesters took over an Albuquerque City Council meeting Monday night, calling for immediate change at APD, the ousting of both Albuquerque’s Police Chief and Mayor and more.The meeting got out of control quickly about an hour after it started. Things got so chaotic and unruly that Chief Gorden Eden left and city councilors canceled the meeting.

Obviously all the facts aren't on the video. But I can tell that K9 sucks, he didn't even go in after the guy unless maybe the Handler was keeping him back?
i don't see where lethal force was necessary, but that's just my opinion.
I hope every one of those pathetic excuses for humans and ANYONE who supports their actions rot in the most miserable, antagonizing way possible. Fuck 'em, period.
That's state-sanctioned murder and should really put into perspective how seriously your rights and life are being taken by .gov at this point.
Obviously the man hadn't signed up for ACA yet so the shooting was totally justified.
