3. The video does not show suicide by cop

The video showed a man who looked like he may be having some mental health issues, but was in no way threatening. What happened to Kajieme Powell is very similar to what happened to Michael Brown, there is a pattern and that pattern can not be ignored.

Your dismissal of Kajieme Powell comes off really nasty, the guy was just shot dead and you scold people for acknowledging him? Seriously you need to read what you wrote to yourself and think of how it might come off to people who are upset about his death.
