I see the guy running away in the video... I cannot tell if he has the first cops tazer or not. If not...
Your or I would be locked up for using lethal force when not in imminent danger....
High probability the police did [bleep] up.
You cant just kill a guy running away. You can kill a guy trying to use your weapon on you at that exact time. If the threat is over and he is not unarmed but fleeing I dont think you can get away with that.
Law Enforcement.... not the judge and jury
Flame away now lmao
Take a look at the video moorewood posted on the next page. Not just a fight. How'd this guy go from being so passed out he couldn't be 'woke', then going along with the police until handcuff time after multiple sobriety tests, then able to throw 2 policemen around? Toxicology report will show something besides liquor. Then after throwing one officer off him he grabs the cop's big bright yellow taser and runs across the parking lot before turning around and pointing the weapon at the pursueing officer at close range. Big Bright Yellow Tazer. I think you'll see it this time.
I do...
But, if a tazer is considered a deadly weapon than why are the police so widely using it towards constituents that dont exhibit weapons to them, as a controlling item.
It isnt considered a deadly weapon. This was just stated by their SA on the national news. So the cop shot a flee’ing man who didnt have a deadly weapon.
He should of shot him when he was getting his ass kicked.
The rules of deadly force shouldnt be different from you, me and the police. If your life is in immediate danger, sure. If a police see your or my life in immediate danger, sure... a cop shouldnt be running, blasting rounds in an occupied parking lot at a fleeing suspect who doesnt have a deadly weapon.
