Jacob Blake: Kenosha Police Shoot Unarmed Black Man 7 Times by damiloladuke: 7:31am On Aug 24, 2020
Police officers in Kenosha, Wis., shot a Black man multiple times as he tried to get into a vehicle, cellphone video of the incident shows. The man, identified by Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers (D) as Jacob Blake, is in serious condition, according to the Kenosha Police Department.

The shooting happened after 5 p.m., when officers responded to a domestic incident, police said. Witnesses told the Kenosha News that Blake was trying to break up a fight and that police first attempted to taser Blake.

The video shows neighbors congregated outside as two police officers with their guns drawn followed Blake as he approached a gray SUV. As Blake opened the driver’s side door, multiple shots ring out from the police.

Police have not commented on what led to the shooting. He was taken to Froedtert Hospital in Milwaukee, police said.

Police turned the scene over to the Kenosha Sheriff’s Department and the Wisconsin State Patrol. The Wisconsin Department of Justice will investigate the shooting, police said.

“While we do not have all of the details yet, what we know for certain is that he is not the first Black man or person to have been shot or injured or mercilessly killed at the hands of individuals in law enforcement in our state or our country,” Evers said in a statement. “We stand with all those who have and continue to demand justice, equity, and accountability for Black lives in our country.”

Hours after the incident, a crowd of protesters gathered at the intersection where Blake was shot. Tensions rose as more police officers arrived at the scene wearing riot gear, and several police cars were damaged. A video shows one police officer being hit with a brick and collapsing to the ground.

The Crisis in the World is Escalating..

Lawlessness, Recklessness,Shootings, Protests, Killings etc Have Become a Normal stuff in Nations..

The Nations of the World are Gradually Preparing for the arrival of the Lawless one, The False Messiah, also Known as the Man of Peace.

Just Yesterday a Prominent Israeli Rabbi Announced that They Expect Him to be Revealed this year..

Thats Shows us How Close we are to the Coming of Christ.

It Shows How Close we are to the RAPTURE of the Saints, because we will be taken away Before He Shows Himself..

Lets Ensure that we are Prepared
Let's Ensure that we are Ready!
It will be in a Twinkling of an Eye..

So they had to shoot him 7 times... for what exactly? angry These cops are fvcked up. One recently pulled me over for no apparent reason. I challenged him to court but the fool never showed up which of course overrules the ticket. The prosecutor said he's just one of those officers trying to complete his ticket quota for the day. Really?

I watched that shi* on the news yesterday so no one should come here and start shouting BLM. If only the dude had obeyed by dropping the fuc*ing knife and lieing down, he would have been alive today.

We don't give a shit. When thousands are slaughtered in Africa we don't hear these fools voices but when they shoot just one man over there, even our own people will come and be showing us what I don't know.
