Jacob blake was asked not to approach his car as the officers had no idea whether he had any weapon or his intent in doing so.

Dylan Roof was in a holding cell in the police station pending transfer to a prison. By law law enforcement has to provide food and water to those in custody. The police station doesn't make food and the closest place was Burger King. It isn't like Dylan was sitting in the back of the squad car giving his order to officers but rather the officers having to do what the law dictates.

These are two very different instances and if you fail to see that either deliberately or otherwise I have no words for you.
Here's what happened as far as I have read on Jacob Blake. On the afternoon in which the altercation happened the police were called to a domestic disturbance issue. A woman called the police on her "boyfriend" as he was told not to be at her property but he showed up anyway. It's unknown whether Jacob was the boyfriend in question as initially the reports said he was there to break up the fight between the couple but that isn't being claimed anymore. As the cops arrive something happens that lead to Jacob and the officers fighting. A more recent video shows the officers and Blake fighting along the back passenger side of his vehicle. Blake begins to walk away from officers towards his drivers side door and proceeds to open it. In pursuit an officer shoots Blake with his tazer but either misses or it doesn't faze Blake. As Blake leans into his vehicle the officer closest to him shoots him 7 times in the back. It is unlcear to what capacity the officer saw the knife in Blakes vehicle.
As for Dylan Roof. Dylan Roof is a racist mass murderer from South Carolina. He's the one in 2015 who shot church prayer group. Killing 8 and wounding several others. Roof fled the scene shortly after the shooting. He was arrested the next morning by police as several people identified him as the shooter. He is currently sitting federal prison awaiting his execution date as the federal prosecutor deemed it necessarily heinous and egregious.
-
As for the Burger King part. As explained in my other comment Roof was taken into custody and was given Burger King by officers while awaiting transfer to a prison as by law officers cannot withhold food or drink from detained people and the station he was held in didn't have any sort of cafeteria.

But it still is pretty scummy.
All of these people seem to be telling only the part of the story that they want to use...

Not telling the whole truth because it doesn't fit your narrative, or to manipulate people is a form of lieing.
