No one got shot for fare evasion.

It’s 100% justified to shoot someone who is coming at you with a knife, no matter who you are.

Your prejudiced assumptions do not trump the evidence we have. The knife is on body cam.

Poe’s law, sorry for going off on you.

It’s a very common tactic in the scumbag playbook.

What a surprise, you consider your team the good guys and the other the bad guys, lmao.

If you had values, you’d recognize shitty/stupid behavior no matter who is doing it. By giving your side a pass for behavior you’d absolutely criticize the other side for, you prove that you have no actual values. It’s team loyalty over integrity. Your comment just reinforced that. I’d put money down that

By the way, calling out “he’s stinky!” as childish, which it objectively is, is not fucking FASCISM APOLOGY, lmaoooooooo. Ideologues are so over the top, hahahaha, holy shit! Listen to yourself, for crying out loud.

Being mocked? By… you?

By every adult. Probably why you hide in the echo chamber with the other kids.

Sure is: “shot over a $2.90 fare” is literally a lie.

The statement by the Department Chief literally references that there is body cam footage, that is the source of information for the statement.

They shot because the guy charged at them with a knife, not because of the fare. OP’s thread title is deliberately misleading, in a desperate attempt to twist this into ACAB fuel.

Any bystander injuries are to be blamed on the aggressor Mr. Knifey.

[Chief] Maddrey said during a verbal altercation, they “became aware of a knife.” Body-worn camera footage, which Maddrey said he reviewed before the press conference, allegedly showed the man make a verbal threat to the officers. He told the cops, “I’m going to kill you if you don’t stop following me,” the chief said. As the encounter continued to escalate, a northbound L train pulled into the station. The train cars opened and the man jumped inside, according to police. Maddrey said the officers followed the man, each firing a Taser which proved ineffective in subduing the man. He then exited the train while it was still at the station and charged the officers with the knife, the chief said.

Cops clearly did nothing wrong in shooting at a guy charging at them with a knife–anyone would be justified in doing so, cop or not. Bystander injuries are on the aggressor’s hands.

Also:

Mayor Eric Adams, who also attended the briefing, described the knife-wielding man as a “career criminal” with over 20 arrests.

Shhhhhhhhhhhocking!

Just because you say it’s projection doesn’t mean it is.

It’s not because I say it, it’s because of all the freaking out in this thread in response to being called out on what is, objectively, immature childish behavior.

If anyone has on their list of political criticisms of Donald Trump “people said he’s smelly”, that person deserves to never be taken seriously by anyone of merit. That’s a fact, no matter how hard you cope. That’s why you’re being mocked, and why it’s merited. Child.

That’s projection lol, you’re all going nuts at someone having the audacity to call out obvious, objective childishness.

Grow up.

Why are men so absolutely abhorrent at taking criticism?

Uh, lol…meanwhile, women are so hostile to criticism that massively-successful TV shows are made out of that premise (TV shows whose primary audience are women, by the way, ironically enough).

“So stop getting so pissy about me assuming you’re a gangbanger, Jamal.”

There is no way you’re actually dumb enough to think those are representative of what the expectation norms are for either sex.

So stop being disingenuous.

There’s a long, documented, researched, history of men being raised to expect things from women.

I find the implication that there is not also a long, documented, researched, history of women being raised to expect things from men, quite amusing in its ignorance.

Someone got cucked and is bitter about it 😂

What a colossally callous and heartless thing to say.

Being cheated on is a horrendous betrayal. “Bitter” is the least on the list of absolutely justified emotions to feel in response to that.

I’m not saying women are universally awful or anything.

You obviously aren’t, but it speaks volumes all on its own that you felt there was a need to state that, only bolstering your other points about this one-sidedness.
