Cable Forum - President Trump 2.0

Now he's saying he wants to "protect" Greenland from China and Russia. First anyone's heard of either country even showing an interest, AFAIK. And they don't need any such protection. Greenland soldiers have standing orders to shoot invaders on sight - and they will.

I'm almost hoping he does invade. What will even Republicans make of American troops being needlessly killed?

It's the political aspect that interests me. When push comes to shove, and USA attempts the Greenland deed, what will Denmark/Europe do? Unless they station troops etc in Greenland and shoot the invader .....

That sort of thing sums up an unacceptable side of the Trump administration.

Sure, he's done some good things - but mainly on the international stage from where I sit.

His Greenland behaviour is disgraceful; entirely Russianesque.

His threats to countries like the UK who try to tax profits of all companies at the point of earning are gross and bullying.

No - he is a bad egg.

Independent investigation by the Democratic Minneapolis Mayor? Yeah right.

When he reached for his gun, wheels aimed straight ahead and he's in front of the vehicle.
A few frames on.
Attachment 31590
Vehicle has moved forwards and wheels still straight ahead.
Case closed.

Ross crosses in front of the vehicle as it moves in reverse. The camera briefly captures Renee Good, who had been talking with the agents at her side window, turning her gaze to look ahead through the windshield. She then looks down as she shifts the vehicle into drive. She looks up again as she turns the steering wheel to the right, away from Ross.

As the vehicle moves forward, Ross is standing near the front driver’s side corner of the vehicle. Someone yells, “Whoa.” Ross’s camera pans skyward but does not fall to the ground. One shot can be heard, then two more can be heard in rapid succession. Ross appears to refocus his camera on the SUV almost immediately, before it crashes nearby. A male voice — it is not clear whose — can be heard uttering two expletives: “F…ing bitch.” 

The full video, uninterrupted, can be seen here:

He was in so much danger he kept filming on his phone whilst he shot the driver…

Re: President Trump 2.0

It's bloody law enforcement. If you want to use a potential weapon, a vehicle in this case to escape apprehension both the law enforcement and escapee are under threat. Both used force to deal with the situation. I don't understand this grievance for the driver of the vehicle. Obey instructions from those in positions of power or you'll feel each others power.

The driver was immature. An adult would deal with the situation.

As the pictures PROVE, at the point of drawing his gun in order to shoot, her car was moving straight forwards. She may have noticed him at the last second and started to turn right, but at that point the appearance was that he was going to be hit.

The car was reversing AND turning. That brought him into the front.

Was he moving from right to left or was the car moving from left to right? Little sign of him moving as he is facing forwards all the time.
Phone was in his left hand, gun was on his right. He started filming long before then.

Why is the car black in your images but the images on SkyNews show the vehicle as burgundy :confused:
