Officer Shot During West Baltimore Traffic Stop, No Marches Or Protests Planned
[Image: rvd1rc.jpg]

Back seat passenger refused to assume the hands up, don’t shoot position.
Fit and the board libs are no doubt happy about this shooting. When the officer gets shot it makes the leftists happy.

Quote: Police said they have charged a repeat violent offender in connection with the shooting of a city police officer during a traffic stop near Mondawmin Mall in west Baltimore on Sunday night.

The incident started Sunday night when the suspect car was initially spotted by a different officer at a nearby gas station. Police said that officer smelled a strong odor of marijuana coming from the car and called it in.

The car was pulled over a short time later by 27-year-old Officer Andrew Groman — a three-year veteran of the force — and five other officers, according to police. Surveillance video showed the car was surrounded by officers.

“They did a car stop on suspicious activity, and they walked up to the car,” said Police Commissioner Anthony Batts.

Police said the driver followed instructions, but 19-year-old Donte Jones, who was in the back seat, wouldn’t get out of the car and refused to show his hands.

“One officer advised him that if he didn’t comply he would be tased. At some point in time, there was the discharging of the firearm, and there was the firing of the Taser.

Exactly which event happened first is still under investigation,”

Baltimore City police Maj. Stanley Branford said. “We do know, however, that the suspect who was the only one who fired a weapon.”[…]

Jones’ court records show he served time for a weapons conviction in 2013 and was on supervised probation when he was arrested on gun and drug charges in June.

“This individual is a 19-year-old member of our community who, at the age of 19, is on parole, probation and has many contacts with the police. He is a violent, repeat offender. Many of his arrests were for gun violence,” Rodriguez said.[…]

Meanwhile, Batts said he hopes the shooting will get the same type of attention as the grand jury decisions in the Michael Brown and Eric Garner cases that have led to protests around the country.

“I’m not caught on the irony of the timing of the situation. We’ve had marches nationwide over the fact that we’ve lost lives in police custody. I wonder if we’re going to have the same marches as officers are shot, too,” Batts said.

The protestors in NY are happy about this. Their chant has been:

Q-"What do we want?"
A-"Dead cops!"
Q-"When do we want 'em?"
A-"Now!!"

Update to this story...

Baltimore Police Chief Ripped By NAACP And Ferguson Protest Leaders For Asking If They Would Show Support For Cop Shot By Black Man…

[Image: 231qbr.jpg]

If the Police Commissioner wasn’t black, he would have been called a racist hundreds of times by now.

Quote:Officer Andrew Groman stood outside the car and ordered passenger Donte Jones to show his hands, police say, but the 19-year-old passenger wouldn’t.

Groman warned Jones he would be hit with a Taser. Finally, police say, the officer fired the shock gun at him.

At the same time, police say, Jones withdrew a black revolver and squeezed off three rounds. A bullet slipped under Groman’s bulletproof vest, police say, wounding him in the abdomen. […]

Police Commissioner Anthony W. Batts did not appear at the news conference. Batts drew criticism from activists after he wondered aloud Sunday whether the demonstrators who have protested the deaths of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Mo., Eric Garner in New York and others at the hands of police in recent months would show similar concern for Groman.

“Although I certainly understand the pain and frustration expressed by Commissioner Batts, I believe his questioning of the community’s response to the shooting is misplaced and not helpful to the dialogue between the police and the community we’re trying to build,” Tessa Hill-Aston, president of the Baltimore chapter of the NAACP, said Monday. […]

“Baltimore Bloc condemns the insensitive and deliberately provocative comments made by Anthony Batts last night,” the group said on its Facebook page. “Police officers are sworn to protect and serve the community. They are aware this is a dangerous job, as is the community who pays them for this service, arms them with several weapons at a time, and provides them with bulletproof vests and other protective gear that in some cases we are not legally permitted to own ourselves.

“This is quite different from the circumstances surrounding the in-custody murders of unarmed civilians by those same extremely armed and protected agents of the state.”

Just more proof of why it's best to be polite to police. They don't know what you're capable of either. What a sad story.

@ Fitbud - It doesn't matter if the killer was caught or not. Had he shot the guy in the back seat, this would be yet another major news story, but most likely it would have stayed minimal until Ferguson and Staten withered down.

So let me see if I have this straight. Are you mad that a black man shot a white man or that it didn't get the media coverage that you think it deserves?

So let me get this straight..

People screamed injustice because an officer didn't use a taser on an "unarmed" person..

However, an officer used a taser, didn't realize the perp was armed, and lost his life.. And this is acceptable.

Bullshyt.

You really do take race baiting to a whole new level.

A police officer in one of America's most crime ridden cities tried to use non lethal restraint on somebody being arrested and it cost him his life tragically. This won't get much national media attention as most murders (be it cops or not) don't. Stories like these are why cops sometimes engage in violent behavior, to protect their lives...yet this story in the midst of so much recent controversy about police brutality likely won't lead to any media naval gazing and will likely be ignored in favor of more race baiting and sensationalism.
