Should the cops not have shot back after being shot at???????? They have a family too. Maybe people shouldn’t be involved in certain activities if they don’t want to deal with the police?

She had broken up with him several years before. The police could have surrounded her house and ask those present to leave peacefully if they thought criminal activity had taken place.

[@kelaarin]

She was the freakin' money handler of the gang!

[@marionickel2616]

The lady was complaining about falsehoods and myths being spread around the internet, but she herself has no problems doing just that. For example: In one of her first answers to Marc`s question she talked about the couple repeatedly shouting "Who is there?" or "Who is it?" when the squad team knocked on their door repeatedly, but they didn`t answer. As far as I know the police officers involved said quite the reverse, they did shout "POLICE." loudly and clearly and repeatedly. So, why did the lady not even mention that contrary testimony, in other words making us believe that the version of the arrested man is an undisputed fact, that the police didnt identify themselves while knocking. Another thing I noticed: According to statements of ex-police officers or other members of law inforcement who run popular, well-frequented channels on youtube, a "no-knock-warrant" is nothing that is easily granted by a judge. There must be CLEAR EVIDENCE that the location subject to this "no-knock-warrant" is used as a place where crime is commited respectively criminal activity takes place. There wouldn`t be such a warrant only on the base of, for example, Mrs. Taylor being previously the girlfriend of a drug dealer or Mrs. Taylor had received a paket of unknown content from this drug dealer (or whatever the story of this paket is, I don`t know it). Without clear evidence of criminal activity no "no-knock-warrant" - this is what I have learnt. The lady in this video should know about it herself but didn`t mention it. Last but not least I would like to say this: As a German man living in Spain and having spent several months per year in the US between 2010 and 2015, I am shocked on how contaminated and poisoned the atmosphere of the society has become and how hostile and aggressive the political discussion is done these things. The ammount of lies, "half-truths", hear-sayings sold as facts etc.pp. is skyrocketing. People don`t seem to switch-on the ratio anymore when it comes to controversial disputes. People don`t take the time to properly collect informations on cases BEFORE they post their judgements online. It seems to be a reflex these days to immediately jump to a conclusion - mostly the one that fits the personal political agenda, without thinking, collecting information, waiting some time until more details are known. I truly hope the American society can go back to the times when your political counterpart was not the enemy that needs to be "destroyed" but the opponent who you discuss with and who you are trying to persuade with facts and arguments. But honestly I am very pessimistic that we will see these times again.

So she wasnt asleep. They heard the knock, called out there was no answer so he got dressed and armed himself with a gun. The police claim they identified themselves as police officers (and they are more believable than a pair of criminals) Its at that point the door is broken down and without identifying the people breaking down the door the criminal shoots, hitting one of the police officers in the leg. At that point the police officers fired back. Hitting Breanna several times. not the boyfriend, he was gone, he didnt take a single wound. She copped the lot. Your whole explanation plays on Breanna being a real victim here because all he boyfriend tried to do was murder a police officer and then claim he thought it was a burglar. Reading the above it wouldnt matter at all who was black or white. They could all be black or all white and it wouldnt change any of the facts of what happened but you need this to be about race, it has to be able race for it to fit in with the story. Its only then do you get what you want.

[@fatbastardmtb7414]

Interesting tactic. Sprinkle in a few facts that fly in the face of the general narrative so you seem credible, but continue to spin the story to suit YOUR narrative..i.e. black people have to be perfect to garner any sympathy, Breonna Taylor was completely innocent, illegal warrant, etc etc etc. This video didn't age well as you can see. Ruled justified by the DA, Breonna Taylor was not innocent, there is documented proof she was involved in drug activity, independent witness testified that the police knocked AND announced prior to entry, etc etc etc. So sick of the continued assault on our police officers...2 of which were shot last night in riots by the way. Where's the sympathy for them?

It would be helpful if you guys just focused on the facts. Are raids like this legal? Are there body cams? Can we be sure the officiers did not identify themselves before the boyfriend started firing? If the boyfriend started firing first after the officiers identified themselves, then that changes the story. If they did not and just barged in, then yeah, I think the boyfriend defending his property was justified. Does anyone have have all the facts and data?

Why is everyone saying she was involved with a drug dealer? Let’s be clear, a “no knock warrant” this is wrong in so many level. 2. Negligence, at night in an apartment community too many apartments to not think about if anything goes wrong. Why at night and not in the day? Someone startled you out your sleep door knocked down not knowing it is the police. She’s not here to defend herself. This was an ex boyfriend who knows why the relationship ended. We don’t know. But what if she found out he was a drug dealer and that’s why she ended the relationship. We don’t know and we cannot continue to keep flip flopping on the facts. Until it happens to you or someone close to you then you will never understand. The ex boyfriend was already in custody at the time the “ No knock warrant” was granted. Too many what if that could go wrong. The law should be changed.

Okay so first you're not bringing up the fact that she had a f****** body in the trunk of her rental car. II you're not bringing up the fact that she had gone strapped to her that were illegal. 3rd and I'm talking about the fact that she was deep in selling drugs which shows based on one her text messages and iMessages online to both Walker the boyfriend who had a legal gun and Shop please and the ex-boyfriend who was a full-blown drug dealer and was arrested by police. Just because they didn't find drugs at her house doesn't mean she wasn't selling drugs. Her boyfriend also had a residency and that has yet to be investigated however I will say this that he is known to be a drug dealer on the streets. Not to mention again there are tons of messages that show him back and forth trying to sell drugs this is the new boyfriend the one that shot cops. Also he put breonna Taylor in front of him so he was using her as a shield also also Marc Lamont Hill is Alexis a****** he is biased why don't you use a real lawyer who is not doing this from a biased perspective? And why don't you bring up the real facts not the version you have the actual facts of the case this is speculation this entire video was speculation. They have not released all the information and yet you're making an assumption about what happened. That's b******* and you are lying to people. I'm not saying she deserve to die but I am saying one she wasn't trying to be an EMT anymore because she got kicked out for months in to the EMT training because there was a body in her rental car you f****** idiots. Stop lying to people stop inciting violence stop trying to make everything about race you were making the problem worse if you want to come versation let's have it let's go come on you guys are too f****** scared to have the goddamn conversation we have been asking for it for years conservatives are not racist conservatives have been begging you guys for a conversation I will applaud Marc Lamont Hill for going on Candace Owens Show and actually doing so. He actually did have a conversation and it was quite Pleasant one I don't agree with him at all but I appreciate that he actually had a conversation now why don't you guys try it you guys try to have a conversation maybe then your mind will open and you'll go holyshit my entire worldview is based on a f****** lie you believe the whole world is racist you believe the whole country is racist you believe Trump is racist all lies. There are literally videos out there that show 20 times were Trump condemned white supremacy yet y'all keep repeating this f****** lie over and over again and Trump has done more for the black community than any president in US history and has completely turned the black community around to some degree. Covid-19 and it killed us all it's not just the black community suffering we are all suffering all of us. and if you want to have a conversation about suffering and how horrible it is to be blacked bring it on b**** I swear to God any one of you want to come at me I will beat your ass with my sob story.

So I don't want to f****** hear your sob story bring it on stop being racist stop making things about race you guys are acting like racists we're not and I'm mad about it I almost all my friends going up or black owned I know that's like the Trope but think about it like this the entire black community in which I grew up in which we're a lot of dealers a lot of crime all loved me and accepted me as one of their snots mention I mix I'm not white I look white but I'm not. So if you really want to try and act like I'm some racist I don't give a fuk think whatever you want but how about have a civil discourse but you can't do that can you because you can't support your actual arguments truth matters and you're not telling it you're lying and I can prove it but you have to have a civil discourse for that to happen

>> Breonna Taylor was NOT shot while sleeping in her bed, she was awake, in her hallway. She was NOT an EMT at the time of her death; she was forced to quit YEARS ago, because a dead body was found in a car rented under her name; the victim was an "associate" of her drug dealing boyfriend. Even though a "no-knock" warrant WAS issued, the officers DID knock. Her neighbors testified under oath, that the police announced themselves BEFORE trying to enter her apartment. Her boyfriend shot a cop, BEFORE police fired their first round. She was STILL aiding and abetting her previous boyfriend's drug dealing operation; she and her car were surveilled delivering drugs to his "trap house" on numerous occasions. She was STILL stashing his drug money at her house. Her address was on record as being his current address on bank records. Her ex-boyfriend blamed her at-the-time boyfriend for her death, NOT the police. >> >> For the uneducated and willfully ignorant: It was NOT the DA who determined the police officers should not be indicted, it was a GRAND JURY, the most impartial of all arbiters. Her address and vehicle WERE on the warrant. The Left and media HAVE been lying to you! It's unfortunate that she was shot and died, but the police did NOTHING wrong. If people want to BLM(Burn, Loot, Murder) over the grand jury's decision, apply the law to THEM. Breonna was involved with, and profiting from drug trafficking. Blame her, her boyfriend or her ex-boyfriend for her death, NOT the police.

[@dhjh8025]

Having packages mailed to your home is a passive relationship?

[@tiffanynot-amused9077]

The boyfriend should be charged.... period

[@johngalt6323]

Black Marxism on the book shelf was my first clue I was about to hear some bullshit.

[@CowgirlUpTrucking]

The Warrant Was For Breonna Taylor Herself for Drug Dealing, Breonna’s Boyfriend said they only asked each other they didn’t shout out whose at the door. The Boyfriend Fired and Shot the Police Officer as he was entering the Apartment. She had Drugs Being Delivered to Her House. Breonna was neck deep in a Drug Cartel. These two don’t have the facts right either therefore shouldn’t say anything.

[@wrldisyours3328]

Guess what.. the community doesn't get to decide justice. The grand jury does.

[@QIUNAPOLOGETICALLY]

Where is that same Energy for this black woman that they have for black men?

[@johnh9243]

well their house isnt on fire lol

[@trooper2561]

Leaving stuff out... video surveillance of her apartment prior to no knock warrant... warrants for cell phones of drug ring participants... leaving big stuff out...

[@Falconsgang8988]

I dont blame kenneth for shooting at the police if they didnt say who it was,but i dont blame them for shooting back especially since an officer was hit.not gonna say who as right or wrong because i wasnt there

[@jeffreycolombo3573]

they were at her door because her ex boyfriend was having drugs delivered to her house. correct? oh and you lost me at "if she ran at them with a knife she doesn't deserve to necessarily get shot."

[@aaronmichelson5510]

The grand jury declined to prosecute for the death of Taylor, even with immense pressure outside the case. That sounds like the justice system worked, unless there's some reason not to believe that. The only thing I think I am completely certain of is that if police officers are fired on, they have the right to fire back with deadly force. I do not believe there is another more important fact of this particular case, despite all the other tragedy involved. Once shots are fired at the police, for whatever reason, they have the right to kill and neutralize that threat. With that said, RIP Breonna Taylor.

[@alizen987]

To the posts disregarding this senseless loss...It doesn't matter if she dated a drug dealer. No one in her apartment was under suspicion for anything that warranted breaking her door down. The shots fired of course would prompt police to return shots, but do you think they would have gone after some suburban woman who used to date a white collar embezzler with an ax to the door? Regardless of drug offenses, no one deserves to be murdered by police. That being said, stop trashing her character. She was working in an ER during a pandemic. She was a young person working in health care with a troubled ex boyfriend, not a dangerous criminal. This was a tragic, avoidable death. If she was your sister or friend you would be outraged. And the justice system is factually, historically, and presently racist and classist.

[@julieroberts8398]

Who shot first?Also, she was. Fired twice from being an EMT. Why? Why was she shot 8 times? Did her boyfriend push her in front? Can you please reply if you know any information on these questions. Thank you.

[@timothyprice863]

The focal point is simply the Police were shot at first and returned fire, period.

[@MrPeter2320]

No knock warrants should not exist period. What do you expect to happen if someone bangs in your door unexpectedly, shoot them.

[@SWRealMusic]

Don’t forget the boyfriend fired first then the police return fire.

[@SWRealMusic]

A man of Vision I’m wondering how did the boyfriend shoot first but did not get any return shot. Both were in the hallway. I wonder if that boyfriend used her as a human shield.?

[@omgbygollywow]

These people trying to look logical on this video. This video did not age well, knowing the facts of the case. But of course they will not make another video to update the facts. Shows how disingenuous these people are.

[@sebastianurena9329]

The door didn't bust open, the boyfriend's bullet comes from the inside portion of the door, STOP WITH LIES

[@michael567jober]

so police assumed her ex bf that was a drug dealer still lived with her because of a package sent shortly before the warrant? if that's true that's bad police work. they should've gotten better evidence and confirm he really lived there

[@robertphillips6296]

Excuse me but you need to check your facts.

[@gunsknives5395]

Read the report on OfficerTatum.com If you can't see the truth in all the phone conversations and video evidence I can't help you.

[@omgbygollywow]

Apparently you don't have to be wise to be a lawyer or attorney. LOL!

[@maxmcdonald4090]

This is just bullshit. They only briefly stated that the boyfriend fired the first shot. They just talk about the "facts" that they want to.

[@magikjohnsoncreditspeciali5628]

Why did they have a warrant to search her apartment?

You shouldn't shoot someone if they are running towards you with a Knife???? Wtf!!!!

Shame on you for making this sound like the investigation was complete and that these facts were from that since these facts you put out are clearly different than the conclusion.

You should cross check arguments where facts are concern at this time be careful of what you are implying. Evidence should be the basis of your argument

[@embethblu]

OMG. Really ... An attorney?.

[@lisaazzano1811]

The public doesn't believe your lies anymore! The smart people go by facts! Self defense by officers. Blame walker who shot first and put BOTH their lives in danger. This is NOT a racist cop shooting !

[@17MrLeon]

There is one huge misconseption either by accident or by intention abotu shotting general. There is absolutely no prosedure to fire just one shot contrary to unloading. Even if she was running with a knife, one bullet does not stop normal person right away. Even if you are mortally wounded you ca nstill fight for seconds or minutes before you bleed out. this is whether you are alowed t ofire or not and once you are alowed to shoot you shoot for as long the person is standing. Specially when you yourself got shot which the policeman firing was.

[@AxlesofEvil]

Can you provide more depth from a legal perspective? I worry about the precedent this sets. Put yourself in a situation more familiar to conservatives. You take your daughter to a gun store, and talk with the shop owner about buying her a .22lr target rifle. Previously, this shop owner traded a gun with you, which was in violation of an obscure gun ordinance. You were skeptical, but took the owner’s word on the legality. An undercover police officer comes in the store to execute a search warrant based on 922r violations. The shop owner draws his sidearm, shoots at the officer hitting him in the leg, and the officer returns fire, striking your daughter. What is your reaction? The public might say you and your daughter were “associating with a criminal and had a previous criminal record”, “it was an unfortunate accident”, or maybe, “He shot at police! What do you think was going to happen?”. Also, you garner little support from your fellow gun owners because last year your daughter was charged and convicted of criminal speeding, going 36mph in a school zone. Do you sue "the government"? Congratulations! The government does not have money. The taxpayers (you and your neighbors) now have to pay $34 million to settle your case. Your daughter is still gone, and the taxes in the general fund that were earmarked for a trauma center are now being used to pay your settlement. Do you demand the police officer be incarcerated? Congratulations! The police response time has now doubled. Looks like you’ll have to pay a $6000 deductible for your broken leg from the hit and run because the police didn’t catch the driver of the vehicle speeding off, despite getting the license plate number. How about suing the shop owner or gun manufacturers? You will not get sympathy from your fellow gun owners.

[@themister3865]

The first shot was fired by her boyfriend at the police. After that occurred, it was self defense by the police!

[@Trapmoneysonny]

Nah, her boyfriend shot in self defense not knowing the cops barged in thinking its someone coming to rob him.

[@littledancingfawn]

Wow, lol. You really gonna bring up race? WTF. This had nothing to do with race. Girl was a criminal with a criminal boyfriend. The warrant was for her too Correct address. She wasn’t in her bed sleeping. (Like we were told) Cops knocked and announced themselves. Boyfriend didn’t believe it was the cops. Boyfriend says “ we were scared” He started shooting when they came through the door. Cops returned fire. Breanna was in the middle and got shot. Boyfriend was wounded and shes dead. Don’t hang with criminals and don’t be criminal yourself.

[@trooper2561]

She was a drug dealer as well... she dated 2 drug dealers...

[@iloveallvideos]

Hello zGrio, anyway you could link to these source documents? I would really like to have them in order to stand on these facts myself. Thank you for making these videos because they are a lens of truth.

[@iloveallvideos]

You also mention that the information is a click away but from my research i cannot find any documents, just second hand sources.

[@dylanwilburn7191]

I hope your channel blows up. I really do. The world needs the facts spoon fed to them. Everyone makes assumptions and believes them as factually especially as it’s passed from person to person. Nobody ever cares to actually look up the facts with a non-biased attitude. So please blow up and spoon feed the world the facts that they need to hear.

[@jpsmoviereviews4005]

You lose credibility when you don’t start off with why a no knock warrant was sought after

[@royalflush8173]

But if shes in the house where the police are serving a warrent and the police knock on the door and get answered by gun fire no she should not be shot but shit happens

I still have quesitons, no really, questions? If someone knocks on your door are you justified in shooting at them? See what I mean??? Did they really not identify themselves?? Do we really know this? Maybe we do. But still, can you shoot at someone for knocking on your door?

Glover and Breonna Taylor Had a on going relationship physical and Business ties. Glover Had 3 Women's

[@christophersanders8172]

Lol how tf are you having anything to do with law? Breonna had been getting packages in the mail and her ex (the drug dealer) would come pick them up. They got with the USPS and made sure who's house it was and that she gets packages often. They knew she had ties to him, and it wasn't because they dated years ago. As far as MLH saying just because she could have been running at the cops with a knife, doesn't mean she needs to get shot times... that is ridiculous and hysterical that you, someone who supposedly knows the law, cops can and will eliminate the threat and it is legal for them to do so. You're both a couple jokes

[@allenkirtley2608]

And her boyfriend used her as a shield that’s why she too all the rounds

[@sophiaahaha7452]

The thing is there weren't any drugs found in their house?? I don't know who to believe since the police officers didn't have their body cameras.

Stay away from thugs, make good decisions, I also noticed they show a picture of her in a EMT uniform she was NOT a EMT she had to resign because the car she rented for her thug boyfriend a guy was shot to death in that car I don't hear anyone saying his name,Helloooo, black guy killed (crickets) it didn't fit the narrative
