They shouldn't have burned it down because Wendy's didn't shoot the man running away......the cop did.

Running away after taking the cops tazer and injuring

an officer.
Completely justified shooting, but it doesn't matter. This is our future now. If the police enforce the law on black people they will riot and burn #### down.

You sir must ne a racist no matter what color you are. Just because someone brings facts and disagrees with your opinion doesn't make them a racist or white supremacist. It makes you one.

None of the headlines mention the race of the cop so I'm guessing he or she is black.

No, it was a white police officer per the AJC.
https://www.ajc.com/news/local-govt--politics/atlanta-police-shooting-death-rayshard-brooks-roils-city/7ju3cAcaLfolTbocqLfArN/
"A white Atlanta police officer fatally shot an African American father of several young children late Friday night following a struggle outside a Wendy’s restaurant on the city’s southside, sparking calls for reform and demonstrations that led to vandalism and arrests."
Not that it justifies deadly force in many cases, but why oh why do people fight police trying to arrest them? That's never going to end well. Even if the police officer is totally wrong, just cooperate in the moment and deal with bad police behavior later when it is safe to do so. I do realize some victems were shot when not resisting at all, which is simply unforgivable.

In schools. It’s never smart to resist arrest or fight policemen even if they’re in the wrong.
You can get them later in the court of law. Don’t lose your cool. Cops are scared

You make a very good point. Until such time as systemic racism is wiped out (if that ever happens) ... don't give the cops an excuse to do what they are hoping to get a chance to do.

Pretty sure white cops arrest thousands of blacks a day in this country. You are assuming they are waiting to kill each one if they resist?Proof? Stats? Anything? Or just more ignorance from you?

Absolutely correct re: not being confrontational with a cop. I do think most police are good people who carry out a dangerous and thankless job. I'm white, but I've had 2 unpleasant encounters in my life that could have turned out very bad. Neither encounter resulted in even a ticket much less an arrest, but both encounters were very threatening. Believe me, I was very cooperative even though on the inside I was both afraid and angry about the behavior of the police.
The man recently shot and killed in Atlanta made a choice to drive while intoxicated and fall asleep in the drive through area of Wendy's. He could have killed someone while driving to Wendy's or killed someone if allowed to drive away from Wendy's.
I watched some of the video. Both cops treated the individual who was later shot in a professional manner initially. The individual who was killed likewise seemed cooperative and respectful to the police initially. He did not appear overtly intoxicated on the video I saw.
Everything went south after this individual then began resisting and fighting both cops after one of them tried to cuff the individual after he indeed failed a Breathalyzer test. He managed to get one of the officer's TASER and fired it. Had he hit the officer, the officer would have been incapacitated. Neither officer could know in that split second whether the resisting individual had a handgun on him that was going to be deployed next.
The officer that had the TASER fired at him, then shot the individual twice apparently in the side or back as the individual was running away.
Had this man not chosen to drive while intoxicated and not resisted arrest, he would be alive today. In retrospect, the officer who shot the individual could have realized the TASER was no longer useful except if touched directly to another person. The officer could have brandished his weapon to be ready if the individual then attempted to charge him with the TASER or if the individual produced a gun or knife. It was dark. All of these events happened in seconds. A full investigation will occur. It may be that this killing was "lawful but awful." The cop had to make a decision in real time in poor lighting. He had already been in a fight with this person and had a TASER discharged at him. A TASER is not an innocuous weapon. Over a thousand people in the US have died after being struck by a TASER. Unfortunately, a young man is now dead. Is it because he was black? I doubt it. He resisted. He was armed with a TASER.
My message is do NOT resist the police and do NOT be verbally combative ever with the police. Some police are bad. Some are jaded from all the BS they have to continually deal with. Some are tired and scared when they approach you.
This killing certainly didn't merit burning down the Wendy's or shutting down I-75. Let's hear all the facts before making a quick judgement on what happened. There is much we don't know yet.

And so it goes on. This at least gives us something to watch as there is no sports. Basically, if your a cop and shoot a person of color, rather justified or not a building or 2 is going to get burned.

It must be unbelievably awful to be a police officer these days.
I am sure many will resign, especially in cities.

That's exactly what they want then they can be criminals like they want to be. I feel sorry for the law abiding and fine black citizens in this country. This is where stereotypes come from. The actions of a few label everyone. The real issue once again has been lost due to the actions of a few.

The cops that don’t resign will get to a point where they will turn a blind eye to black criminals and won’t bother messing with them thus just letting them roam the streets free. And then the criminals will pick up on this and take full advantage of doing what they do best. Hints the riots and vandalism because they know cops are scared of the consequences of enforcing the law on them.
