Situation is unfolding but the cops are in full damage control mode. Local organizations are rallying. Picture is frames before the crime. You can see the perpetrator pointing their gun at the victim who is restrained and on the ground.
Full video of the execution was captured by @mudlord on instagram: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DbGyT50BB1b
Obviously content warning and I’m hoping the little NSFW checkbox blurs the image.
I’m so tired. I’m so, so tired. When does it stop. How does it stop. How many more will be murdered in cold blood before we as a society decide it has to stop, at any and all costs.
I’m so tired

These are the times where it’s just
What’s the context of this in the plot I’ve been considering reading punisher
It’s from the Punisher MAX story, “Up is Down, Black is White”
So a mobster decided (with help from a CIA goon btw) to draw the Punisher into an ambush by getting him so angry he doesn’t do the usual Frank thing of playing it smart
Mobster knows one thing about the Punisher, so he goes to the cemetery, digs up his dead family and pisses on the remains
He of course records this and sends it to every newspaper, tv station and gossip rag he can
Frank starts going apoplectic, starts killing goons every single night, leaving one alive every time so they can relay his single demand
Bury his family again or he will never, ever stop
This image is from a dream he has (keep in mind, he’s stopped sleeping) where he kills every single person in New York City
It’s heavy stuff
If you want some suggestions, I say start with the Garth Ennis runs of Punisher MAX
They’re self-contained, so they don’t require going through dozens of other stories to understand
Most of the collections online include Punisher: Born, Punisher: Tyger, Tyger and Punisher: The End, which all really help to flesh out Ennis’ personal vision of the character
Everyone’s first instinct seeing something politically sensitive on corpo social media should be to mirror it asap.
Holy shit, they tackle him off his bike at speed, then he’s already got 3 pigs on top of him restraining him, before another cop-car pulls up a pig exits, he tased then shot like 2/3 seconds later
They’re probably going to go all in on the ‘he was armed and about to shoot we feared for out lives’ even though his hands/arms are clearly restrained. Or they’ll barely bother with a cover up an no justice will be served to the pigs just like Tamir Rice, Philando Castile, Alec Pretti and so many more
This is an isolated incident and the US is not an authoritrian police state btw
Trying to work out if this is another angle https://www.channel3000.com/news/full-video-police-involved-fatal-shooting-in-madison/article_2b47a3cd-49dc-46b5-bb20-8448f784378f.html but it’s geolocked and https://archive.is/Rm2cJ doesn’t copy the video it seems
This is another angle. The guy has a knife, but that wouldn’t matter if the cops hadn’t tackled him off his bike. And he is fully restrained before they shoot him right in the face. Once he is dead, they start kneeling on him and cuffing his corpse.
For context, this man was executed in broad daylight for “checking vehicles.”
They claim two officers were “injured” but the entire interaction seems to be: cops were called cause a guy was looking at cars. They show up, he takes off. They knock him off his bike, grab him, pin him, and shoot him. He does not threaten them. He does not stab them or hit them. They’re absolutely lying about injuries.
Honestly I can’t even see the knife in his hand in the video. They just yell he has a knife, but his arms are being held and his hands look empty. They seem to pull the knife off him and toss it aside after they kill him. So if it was even his knife (which, let’s be real, cops plant weapons all the time), he wasn’t using it. Looks like it was in a pocket or waistband or on his belt or something from the angle they pull it off him
The only injury they possibly suffered is the blow from taking the bike at that speed, which was not the riders fault, although I’m surprised there wasn’t friendly fire with how close and sloppy the shooting seemed
Looks like one of the cops shot the other cop to me. He has his hand behind the victim’s head at the time he gets shot in the face and he flinches his hand away very sharply, even shakes his hand in pain afterwards. Bullet probably went all the way through and he took some shrapnel either from the bullet or bones.

CW Closer graphic video
Someone should be able to download the video and mirror it.
They say “He’s got a gun!” Yet didn’t plant a gun. So much for sticking to your story.
Thanks, CW you can see even more clearly what happens in this
I can’t bring myself to watch the more detailed video but people are saying the channel3000 video is extremely graphic, more close up of his face afterwards, just a warning.I’m mistaken, that’s a different video I think, but any of them are distressing to watch to say the least.This video is not up close, you do not see his face, just cops piled around him. It’s not “graphic” but it is awful because it is someone’s death. I still do not recommend watching the video; in the end, it’s exactly what you expect. A bunch of pigs murder a man in broad daylight and then pretend to be helping.
Clearly shot while on the ground fully restrained. Shortly after, the cop with his back towards the camera tosses a knife off to the side, followed by a second item (ziploc bag?) also tossed to the side. Because of the camera angle you can’t tell if they were found on the victim (pockets?) or produced from somewhere else & dropped, but I assume that’s the justification they’ll go with. No sign that the victim was actually holding the knife at any time.
You can see a pool of blood in the video, though.
Ah my mistake, that must be a separate one
Yeah, a good habit here for people is to save stuff you think is important. Includes anything, but especially stuff like this.
It’s going to be an absolute miracle if anyone talks about this for more than 2 days
It will be talked about for more than two days in Madison. Outside of Madison, you’re probably correct.
video is staying power. kinda depends how long before ice kills somebody else on camera.
Idk, the cops murdered white guy Daniel Shaver on camera with the world’s flimsiest excuse after a prolonged absurd game of Simon says, and we’re like the only ones who remember it
I don’t think video of crimes has that much staying power these days, at least not consistently.
i also hear about Shaver from time to time from the handful of right-libertarians who are still anti-cop. usually because they’re being racist 🙁
99% chance this is successfully swept under the rug, 1% chance of
and then somehow still nothing changes
If cops will just execute you on the ground then running seems like the only sensible option.
I think you mean [removed for fed posting] is the only sensible option
Yeah at some point they’re gonna start reaping what they’ve sown. If you make it so that running and surrendering aren’t valid options, sooner or later people are going to start picking… the other option.
Cops shouldn’t be allowed to carry guns. The UK is a hell somehow worse than the U.S. in many ways but the one thing they did right was having a separate squad of gun cops unless they’re no longer doing that idk i don’t keep up with the uk
Cops shouldn’t be allowed
to carry guns.I knew someone was gonna do that as soon as i posted but you know what i’ll allow it
Sorry editing out my comment it was a pointless and inappropriate joke
It’s also most South-East Asian countries, where normal police do not have guns, then there’s military police with guns. There’s heaps of footage of police from China, Vietnam, Singapore, Indonesia etc using nets and trident like catching poles to disarm people with knives instead of just shooting them.
I also liked how rural police in New Zealand were a while back (I don’t know if it’s changed). They had no handguns, but a semi-automatic rifle locked in the boot of their car. So if they needed a gun for an emergency they had one. But it wasn’t something they could pull out on a whim.
you couldn’t give cops here man-catchers they’d stab people in the throat.
unless they’re no longer doing that idk i don’t keep up with the uk
That’s how it is everywhere except transit hubs (major train stations or airports) yeah. Those cops have g36 or mp5 now.
In case anyone is curious, in the period of April 2025 to March 2026 there were 9 incidents where a cop fired a weapon in the 16030 different armed operations carried out by police: https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/police-use-of-firearms-statistics-april-2025-to-march-2026/police-use-of-firearms-statistics-april-2025-to-march-2026
I think having separate armed police puts a gravity on them that massively reduces the number of times they actually use the weapons compared to the total normalisation of gun use the america cops have. Additionally because they’re “special” they probably take a greater pride in being professional about it.
in ireland only a tiny portion of the cops have guns and a beat cop will never have one. it’s kind of absurdly funny when your capitalist state is upheld by guys with literal sticks
Update: cops have cleared out. Protests continue. Report came in that the cops picked up a knife from the local library’s lost and found.
Sounds plausible, but is there a source on that report?
Its rumor from a signal chat. Another video came out showing a knife during the incident. It also clearly shows him getting tazed by one cop and then the cop that was wrestling with the knife takes that as an opportunity to execute him.
reminds me of Sammy Yatim, murdered in 2013 at age 18 by piggy James Forcillo, because he had a small knife. Yatim was alone in one of the old Toronto streetcars, which were built like tanks, with nobody else at all around the vehicle. He could not have run anywhere, and there was nobody to hurt. They tasered him after fatally shooting him 8 times.

Unalive the police.
Any violence against the police is justified self defense.
And as always liberals will look like I have two heads when I say “fuck all cops. Get them out of here”
This is also dead center of most hippy/progressive neighborhood in Madison.
Yeah, I grew up in Milwaukee and the couple of times I went to Madison were eerie
Big college city, always seemed a little too good to be true
It really wants to be some European city like Amsterdam but its still the US. Something about the university being founded by 1848ers.
The cops here seem to be better trained on damage control than deescalation.
Certainly seems to be the case everywhere unfortunately
From https://www.wpr.org/news/shooting-police-madison-east-side-protest-concerts-on-the-square
Wednesday’s shooting took place in the same neighborhood where a Madison police officer fatally shot Tony Robinson, a 19-year-old Black man, inside an apartment building in 2015.
Robinson was unarmed. The Dane County District Attorney did not issue charges against that police officer, after determining the officer had reason to fear for his life after concluding that Robinson had physically assaulted the officer at the top of the stairs within the building.
The story on that one is he was having an acid trip safely in his home when the police interrupted him and shot up the stairs at him.
There’s a mural on of Tony Robinson just over a block away.
Death death to AmeriKKKa
The video is bad.
short description of how the kkkops murdered this poor man
They straight up tazed him, stomped on him, had him down and restrained, and then shot him.
I hope I’m the first one to make this joke in this thread.
The dems have a plan. What the police need is more funding and more training…
eagerly awaiting your joke comrade
Cops weren’t wearing bodycams because its not mandatory.
Bodycams change very little beside offering an up close view of the inhumane cruelty police dispatch against citizens. Bodycams were never a solution. Vanishingly few instances of police being punished for their behavior while wearing a bodycam.
My opinion is they are by no means a solution but they are nice to have. The main harm misleading liberals into thinking they are a solution.
Greatest country in the world btw
