Could Have Been Worse…

Yet another example of why the MSM is not worthy of belief. The New York Times, you know, “All the news print to fit” or some such shit left a minor detail out of their story.

“I realized I had dropped my knife, had a little pocket knife. So I picked it up after I got off of him because they tased me and I fell on top of him,” Blake told Michael Strahan on ABC’s “Good Morning America” on Jan. 14.

Blake then said he went to the driver’s side door to put the knife in the car and intended to then surrender to police.

“I shouldn’t have picked it up, only considering what was going on,” he said. “At that time, I wasn’t thinking clearly.”

I don’t for one moment believe Blake’s benign explanation as to why he had a knife in hand when he was shot. The bottom line is when an officer fights with a suspect and is within arms length when the suspect displays a knife, a shooting is likely to occur.

On the bright side. The slimes resisted the impulse to call Blake a liar.

More credibility than the New York Times
