It's how they justify their relevance among other extremists. Not sure about that for what I have read. Perhaps you could post a link? The incident also could have been a form of the "suicide by cop" phenomena. What is for the sure the incident will be manipulated by the rightwing media to confirm their false narratives, the agents will probably get commendation letters, and nothing will ever ever be done in the USA about the serious problem.

I'm looking for a link but before a certain incident it was reported an FBI agent had not even disciplined let alone charged criminally for discharging a weapon in decades.

johnnybangkok Posted August 13, 2023 Share Posted August 13, 2023 17 hours ago, Hanaguma said: The FBI also had a choice. Serve him his warrants in a safer manner that did not necessitate driving a mini tank through his front door at 600am. You seem particularly fixated on this 6 am part. You do realise the FBI and all law enforcement prefer to do raids at sunrise for some very good and obvious reasons:- 1) it is dark outside and easier to approach unnoticed 2) most people are asleep and therefore at home. 3) sleeping people are easier to creep up on, and take longer to wake to an alert state to be combative 4) some agencies have night vision devices and/or other tech that gives them an advantage in low light/darkness 5) there is generally fewer people up and about so less likely there will be collateral damage. I think it's fairly obvious to state the 'safety' of the target is far less important than the safety of innocents and their own safety. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Monday Posted August 13, 2023 Share Posted August 13, 2023 On 8/10/2023 at 10:23 PM, Chomper Higgot said: I seem to recall some of those bleating about this guy being shot by agents executing a lawful warrant banging on in the past about a guy murdered in cold blood by police officers. Something along the lines of ‘he was a danger to the officers/he should have followed the instructions given by the officers/he should not have resisted the officers performing their lawful duty’. They would be saying that here now in a near exact situation. If the for example the guy had been a BLM supporter, Islamist, simply had dark skin, or threatened GOP types. It is all extreme partisanship and hateful bias now. Fueled by fake media 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TallGuyJohninBKK Posted August 13, 2023 Share Posted August 13, 2023 (edited) What is the FBI’s policy on the use of deadly force by its special agents? "FBI special agents may use deadly force only when necessary—when the agent has a reasonable belief that the subject of such force poses an imminent danger of death or serious physical injury to the agent or another person. If feasible, a verbal warning to submit to the authority of the special agent is given prior to the use of deadly force." https://www.fbi.gov/about/faqs/what-is-the-fbis-policy-on-the-use-of-deadly-force-by-its-special-agents On 8/11/2023 at 7:25 AM, Bkk Brian said: Authorities said he pointed his weapon at agents and did not respond to their commands. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/utah-man-killed-fbi-pointed-gun-agents-fatal-shooting-rcna99326 Edited August 13, 2023 by TallGuyJohninBKK 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post TallGuyJohninBKK Posted August 13, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted August 13, 2023 The Trump effect on full display: "Trump has referred to the special counsel overseeing the federal prosecutions, Jack Smith, as “deranged” and an “out of touch lunatic,” and to the charges against him as “election interference and yet another attempt to rig and steal a presidential election.” He also has attacked a local Georgia prosecutor expected to file more charges against him next week, Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis. Experts warn the escalating rhetoric could increase the risks of violence, especially as the 2024 election and Trump’s trials draw closer." https://www.politico.com/news/2023/08/12/political-threats-2024-elections-00110966 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
