but you see imminent threat from unarmed black people reaching for their driver's licenses
No I see a threat from a mainstream media repeating a black man's false claim that he was unarmed and shot for no other reason than being black, to the point that they stirred up riots resulting in a $1 billion dollars in property damage and stolen goods in Kenosha alone. And for your information Babbit was also unarmed. Was the officer in the right to shoot her? Probably. But don't try to tell me that when people die there's always charges brought against the shooter that go on for years and bankrupt and destroy the suspects life even when the truth comes out and the shooter is proven innocent.
The evidence that he was "armed" is ambiguous. If he had a knife on him then why didn't he use it during the initial scuffle? The fact that he didn't use it was a pretty good indication that he had no intention to use it. Duh?
Yes, a knife can kill but so can a screw driver. If it were a screw driver they found on the floorboard of his car instead of a box cutter, would they call him "armed" and use that as justification to shoot him in the back? There is a reason people say never bring a knife to a gun fight. So when people refer to being "armed" it is typically understood to be armed with a gun.
As far as the media is concerned, they been reporting accurately based on data at the time. What idiots like you don't get is that it wasn't even until a few days after the incident that the police answered the question as to whether or not he was armed. They declined to comment on that question at first, so naturally their refusal to say he was armed, along with the witnesses who said he was unarmed, made it perfectly accurate for the media to say he was unarmed "according to witnesses." You could also see him walking around the car in a video and there was no apparent weapon in his hands.
By contrast, Ashli Babbitt was breaking the law and aggressively approaching security while destroying property to get to them. For obvious reasons, an unhinged mob acting in unison is far more dangerous than a single person with a knife. But none of these facts faze you simply because she was white. In your Nazi worldview, white people are privileged and shouldn't beheld to the same standard as unarmed black people who get shot by cops. I've watched you for years address every illicit cop shooting resulting in black deaths, making excuses and giving us their criminal histories, as if to say, "So what if they were innocent here, they have criminal records!"
