How to use unarmed in a sentence?

  1. Hennepin County Judge Regina Chu:

    This is not a cop found guilty of murder for using his knee to pin down a person for nine minutes as he gasped for air, this is not a cop found guilty of manslaughter for intentionally drawing his firearm and shooting across his partner to kill an unarmed woman as she approached his car. This is a cop who made a tragic mistake. She drew her firearm thinking it was a Taser, and ended up killing a young man.

  2. Chesa Boudin:

    We rely on officers to follow their training and to deescalate situations; instead, in just eight minutes, Officer Cha elevated a nonviolent encounter to one that took Sean Moore’s life. Sean Moore was unarmed and at his own home when Officer Cha shot him twice.

  3. Christian Taylor:

    What he'd done, ain't no way right, but to shoot an unarmed man? You're a police officer, you're trained to take down men with your hands. You have your Tasers, you have your clubs, whatever there is. Unarmed, a 19-year-old -- and you shoot to kill?

  4. Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson:

    I want to join in those who are calling for greater security at our recruiting centers and military installations, we’ve had numerous instances of attacks. Clearly, they are a target, and for us to have unarmed military personnel makes no sense.

  5. Domingo Garcia:

    The video clearly shows that Rubén García Villalpando was shot while unarmed with his hands in the air by this officer, it once again shows that there is a double standard of justice in America. Again we see an unarmed individual shot by a police officer who gets away with murder.
