thegatewaypundit--2020-06-17--Black Georgia Sheriff Says Rayshard Brooks Shooting Was ‘Completely Justified’

You ’ ll be hearing a lot of talk about the shooting of Rayshard Brooks by an Atlanta police officer now that the city ’ s district attorney has filed 11 charges against Ofc .

But perhaps it ’ s worth hearing what Burke County , Ga. , Sheriff Alfonzo Williams has to say .

That ’ s five whole seconds .

And yet he is still responsible for every @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Fulton County DA Announces 11 Charges , Including Felony Murder on the Officer Involved in Fatal Shooting of Rayshard Brooks - Says Brooks Never Informed He Was Under Arrest ?

“ We ’ re sending the wrong message to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ telling them that it ’ s OK , that they can run from the police , that they can take a weapon from the police , they can fight with the police , and point their weapon at the police , and expect nothing to happen .

You’ll be hearing a lot of talk about the shooting of Rayshard Brooks by an Atlanta police officer now that the city’s district attorney has filed 11 charges against Ofc. Garrett Rolfe, including felony murder.
But perhaps it’s worth hearing what Burke County, Ga., Sheriff Alfonzo Williams has to say. He has, after all, run three law enforcement departments, so he knows a thing or two.
“This is the third law enforcement agency I’ve been head of,” Williams, who is black, told CNN. “Every agency I’ve gone to, I’ve required every officer who carries a Taser to be Tased with it, so that you understand the incapacitation.”
“Five seconds; 1,001, 1,002, 1,003, 1,004, 1,005. That’s five whole seconds. If an officer is hit with that Taser that he, all of his muscles will be locked up and he’ll have the inability to move and to respond. And yet he is still responsible for every weapon on his belt.
“So, if that officer had been hit, he still has a firearm on his side and the likelihood of him being stomped in the head or having his firearm taken and used against him was a probability. And so he did what he needed to do. And this was a completely justified shooting,” Williams said.
Brooks was shot as he attempted to flee Rolfe and another officer, Devin Brosnan, after they tried arrest Brooks when he failed a sobriety test. Brooks wrestled and punched both officers and stole one of their Tasers, which he fired at one as he ran. Rolfe then shot him twice.
“So you think lethal force here was necessary?” CNN anchor Brianna Keilar asked. Williams said the Fourth Amendment to the Constitution allowed for such force. “There’s nothing malicious or sadistic in the way these officers behaved.”
Rolfe was fired and the Atlanta police chief was forced out by Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms, reportedly on the short list to become Joe Biden’s running mate. Williams also said the police department and the mayor should have backed the officer.
“It’s very unfortunate that the law enforcement leaders in the state of Georgia have not come out and stood together on this case,” Williams said. “I think it’s political and it’s senseless.
“We’re sending the wrong message to our black youth. We’re telling them that it’s OK, that they can run from the police, that they can take a weapon from the police, they can fight with the police, and point their weapon at the police, and expect nothing to happen. That is the wrong message to send to black youth.”
Williams also said there was no racism in the shooting.
“An officer generally goes to work every day, he’s not concerned about whether a perpetrator is black or white. He’s there to do a job,” he said.

NIMBY: Celebrity-Packed Beverly Hills Tells Black Lives Matter To Beat It, Limits Gatherings To 10 People

The limousine liberals in Beverly Hills are all in on Black Lives Matter protesters marching through the streets to protest the death of George Floyd , who died while in the custody of the Minneapolis police on Memorial Day .
Just not in their back yard .
The city has issued a ban on all gatherings of more than 10 people after 9 p.m. until further notice .
Why ?
To “ preserve peace and tranquility.
” “ To preserve the peace and tranquility of residential neighborhoods , effective tonight and until further notice , no more than 10 people @ @ @ @ @ @ @ public right of way in a residential area between the hours of 9 p.m. – 8 a.m. , ” the city ’ s social media accounts announced .

A short time later , looters hit an Alexander McQueen store , as well as other shops .

On Feb. 29, U.S. Surgeon General Jerome Adams implored Americans to stop buying masks.
“They are NOT effective in preventing general public from catching coronavirus, but if healthcare providers can’t get them to care for sick patients, it puts them and our communities at risk!” Adams wrote on Twitter.
Many on the White House Coronavirus Task Force echoed Adams — especially Dr. Anthony Fauci, an immunologist and director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases who serves on the Task Force.
“There is no reason for anyone right now in the United States, with regard to coronavirus, to wear a mask,” Fauci told Spectrum News DC on Feb. 14.
“There’s no reason to be walking around with a mask,” Fauci told CBS’s “60 Minutes” on March 8. “When you’re in the middle of an outbreak, wearing a mask might make people feel a little bit better and it might even block a droplet, but it’s not providing the perfect protection that people think that it is. And, often, there are unintended consequences—people keep fiddling with the mask and they keep touching their face.”
Now we know why he told Americans not to wear masks — he was lying.
“Well, the reason for that is that we were concerned the public health community, and many people were saying this, were concerned that it was at a time when personal protective equipment, including the N-95 masks and the surgical masks, were in very short supply,” Fauci told The Street. “And we wanted to make sure that the people, namely the health care workers, who were brave enough to put themselves in a harm way, to take care of people who, you know, were infected with the coronavirus and the danger of them getting infected,” had access to the masks.
Fauci also said “masks are not 100 percent protective.”
“However, they certainly are better than not wearing a mask. Both to prevent you, if you happen to be a person who maybe feels well, but has an asymptomatic infection that you don’t even know about, to prevent you from infecting someone else,” Fauci said. “But also, it can protect you a certain degree, not a hundred percent, in protecting you from getting infected from someone who, either is breathing, or coughing, or sneezing, or singing or whatever it is in which the droplets or the aerosols go out. So masks work.”
Unless he’s lying — again.

The woman police officer just got off of a long shift and stopped by McDonald’s on her way home. The employees made her wait in the drive-through.

thegatewaypundit--2020-06-17--Democrats Decry Americans Protesting Lockdowns, But They’re All In For Rioting, Looting

A week ago Monday , Rep. Val Demings , a Florida Democrat rising up in the Joe Biden veepstakes , attended a massive “ Healing and Hope ” rally , where thousands of maskless protesters were jammed in elbow to elbow .

And Washington, D.C., Mayor Muriel Bowser, who threatened to hit violators of stay-at-home orders with $5,000 fines or 90 days in jail, sang a different song when thousands of protesters rioted in the nation’s capital, defacing memorials and monuments and torching a historic church. “We are grieving hundreds of years of institutional racism,” she said.
