Fatal shooting at Cottonwood Walmart - Saturday March 21 - CPD Dash Cam

[Sedona]

Its hard to count how many things went wrong here.

2. If you take away the gun shot at the end, this is probably pretty similar to the Palin brawl. nt

9. That was my first thought as well. n/t

3. That was a clusterfuck

I dont really have a problem with this shooting. I hope the officer has a speedy recovery.

5. Agree, the officer only shot after his comrade was shot in the leg in a struggle for his gun

The family is insane. All were living out of the Chevrolet Suburban and were members of a traveling band called Matthew 24 Now, a reference to a Bible verse dealing with the end of times. The band’s Facebook page is rife with Biblical references

4. I think they all better look for other jobs

Their careers as musical bastions of Christian morality are over.

I felt sorry for the cops. These people acted like total dirtbags.

I'll bet the Palin family brawl was a lot like this, but nobody there was stupid enough to take a cop's gun and shoot him with it.

I hope the cop heals. I hope these belligerent dumbasses grow up while serving their sentences for assault.

7. When you are an end times Christian band

deadly fights in Wal-Mart Parking lots are nothing more than a bump in the end times road they are righteously traveling on and any innocent officers who might have gotten killed were in God's plan. What the hell if one brother dies? They will all be together soon. Hallelujah!

6. Kinda ruins all Walmarts for me.

16. Only for late shopping, snort...

Right?

8. Unbelievable.

10. for some reason

I cannot stop watching this video. I try to follow one person through the full scene but it is like watching 10 daddy long leg spiders dancing... you just can't keep track of the legs.

Crazy is the only word for it.

And they should probably give a job to this guy... Eric Fields



He stepped in to help the cops when things got out of hand. Without his help, I bet things would have turned out a lot worse for the Police officers. (turns out he was honored... quick follow-up link.)

11. Looks like the old Saturday nights at the Bridgeport Tavern.

Just down the road, hasn't changed much.

12. That had to be the crazyest thing

I have ever witnessed. It was nuts!

[jtuck004]

13. It says "Christian", but they act like "Christian Identity", which is a WHOLE 'nother thing. n/t

14. Now that's white privilege

15. I imagine if the perps were black they'd all be dead within the first minute...

But, what we have here is WalMart Palin-style brawling and a lots of unorganized police reaction (putting it mildly).
