The cops entered the casino, he was crouched behind a machine, he made eye contact with the cops and then ran.

Is there anything you don't understand?

again, i already wrote that in my original post.
why are you repeating it? i'm not a psychic.

It would probably be interesting to view the casino video footage of him running out of the casino when the cops arrived and into traffic if that is in fact what actually happened.

I'm repeating it because you're defending a man that ran from the cops who were responding to an active shooter call. You actually believe his bullshit story. It's laughable.

Big black guy= danger



White guy= maybe we can work something out

Not all cops. But the majority, that is the case.

Ok let's look at the statistics

Black guy= danger higher probability of the officer being attacked


White guy= maybe we can work something out because a lower probability of the officer being attacked

Not all blacks. But a higher percentage, that is the statistical truth and is the case.

That's why those HISPANIC cops acted the way they did.

The man said himself he would be good if he was running at police in a similar incident. Just saying. Have someone read for you.
You lost me.

If if I was Bennett I would run towards police and explain what I've heard and what I've seen.
Pretty simple.

if bennett ran towards the cop they would have deemed that an aggressive move and probably shoot him
Absolutely not true. You are completely speculating. My option is way better than your option to run. Stupid as is a stupid does.

I'm white... and would never run at police. Not a good idea for a black man to do this. Don't think the cops did anything wrong here from what I can see though. Had he run at them we'd be like why did he run at them? What a dumb ass.

I think you're taking the run at them reference a little far. Let's use some common sense here folks. "Approach police" is better description but I thought you knew what I meant. Running from the police would be opposite. Let's keep it relatively simple. I don't mean run at like you mean harm, simple understanding.

[FONT=&quot]Grammas gave the police officers’ side of the events, noting that the officers were responding to “one of the most dangerous calls a law enforcement officer can be assigned – an active shooter firing rounds in a crowded casino.”[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Bennett claims he was running from the apparent source of the suspected shooting. In Grammas’s account, Bennett was observed hiding behind a slot machine and began running when officers turned toward him, “leaped over four (4) foot barrier wall, and hid from officers as he crouched close to the wall on the sidewalk.” At that point, Grammas said, the officers “had reasonable suspicion, which is the constitutional standard, to detain Bennett until they could determine whether he was involved in the shooting.”

--------------------------------------

Michael Bennett is an absolute POS, a scumbag liar, a man who lives a life of privilege and then cries about being a victim. Michael Bennett lied about what happened that night, he tried to impugn the reputation of police officers doing their job just to advance his delusional agenda.

Fuck the Michael Bennett's of this world, may he suffer the consequences of his words and his actions.

There's a live shooting, he hides from police officers and then runs from them. What are they supposed to do? The man's a fucking idiot [/FONT]

I'm calling bullshit, he's big on this BLM stuff and I think his story has been embellished just a tad.

If you look like a suspect, you can be detained no matter what race or color you are. If a very large black man committed a crime in the vicinity, they're not going to detain some white guy and they're not going to detain a small black guy either. It's just the way it is

that was easy, many of us saw that coming from the very beginning

I just read that the report of gun fire was false.

So there wasn't a live shooter, ever. I thought there was an actual report of a guy with a gun. So who the hell said the shooter was black when the shooter never existed? Who assumed he was black?

Would be a lot more clear if the cops followed policy and had their body cameras on. Always doing whatever the fuck they want. That's why people don't like police.

I don't know why no one is talking about this. Lol someone racially profiled black people here whether it was the cops or the 911 caller. It is clear as day. If there wasn't really a shooter. And no one saw anyone shoot a gun. How can you say the shooter was black????? Wow.

Anybody??? Wow. That is fucked up lol. Wtttff. That's like Tom Mabe doing that prank where he's on the phone with an angry husband...." Man, I didn't screw your wife. Look you want a piece of me, I'm right outside the casino. Yeah I'm a big black guy with a green shirt and I look homeless. Yeah. Big beard. You can't miss me I'm like 6"7 270 lbs."

Lmao.

who said he was black? a man hides behind a slot machine, then runs from the police and hides again, what the fuck are they supposed to do? He lied, his whole story is a lie



TMZ added, "Sources connected to the investigation tell TMZ Sports ... when cops responded to the club for a possible shooting, they ordered everyone to get down and not move so they could properly search and investigate. We're told Bennett did not stay put -- instead, he ran -- and a cop outside the club stopped him and ordered him down to the ground at gunpoint. Our sources say Bennett was detained until cops could determine he was not involved in any possible criminal activity ... and he was released."

------------------------------

casinos have cameras all over the place, there's no doubt in my mind who's going to be proven to be a liar.

as always, I'll put money where my mouth is




PS: Michael Bennett said he was running from the scene. So he established the fact that he was running, that's indisputable at this point, he was running from the scene. Which now begs the question, what was he running from? You're claiming there was no gunfire, so why was he "running from the scene"?

I'm asking. First report I heard was....cops responded to a live shooting incident with a big black guy with a gun. Lol was that not the first thing that broke on why they confused him with someone else? That's hilarious. When there was never a shooter. So I am asking, why was that information in the cops heads?

According to Bennett, the incident occurred in the early-morning hours on Aug. 27 after the Floyd Mayweather-Conor McGregor fight in Las Vegas, when police apprehended him after hearing what sounded like gunshots in a crowded area.

------------------

the above came from post 1, so evidently Bennett himself referred to "hearing what sounded like gunshots"
