    My father was a law enforcement officer for over 20 years. You never try and take someone down on your own, especially if you are by yourself (you put yourself and the perp at risk). You can attempt to arrest the perp but if the perp chooses to flee you can a) chase and get help or b) let him go and catch him later. What this cop did was murder. The perp was not a threat to the cop. The perp was fleeing the scene. As a police officer you are there to uphold the law, you do not act as judge, jury, and executioner. It's not the wild west.
    As slow as his ass was running he could have thrown a rock and knocked him over....

    I've ran from "Hey you, stop!"
    So they would have been right to kill you.

    If only....

    Sounds good, but what are all the purposes of a cop having a gun then? I'm not really sure, so I'm asking
    The gun is for protection. It is your last line of defense if you as an officer feel like your life is at risk. Had the perp been trying to attack the officer the officer would've been right to shoot.

    I just can't believe that robdiaz exposed himself as a moron...he's been trolling all this time making me think he was a normal thinking dude....he's bout as Bat crazy as atheists tbh
    I just can't defend a man who ran twice even after being tased. You are literally asking to get shot at that point. It's sad that it happened but you can't run away from a cop afer being pulled over and think you're just going to get away with no repercussions. He was an adult. I would understand if it had been a young teen but not a grown ass man. He also should of been a real man and kept up with his child support payments.

    Nope. I was just an individual in the crowd. Every Black killed by Police case we've discussed involved direct questioning and face to face interaction with Police

    You could have been planning a crime.

    Could've had a gun.

    Could've been thinking of murdering a cop.

    You should be dead.

    I believe he thought he was. If he was trying to take away the taser who's to say he wouldn't of tried to take the gun? The cop had no idea why this man was trying so hard to get away. What if he was a murderer? It's easy for us to say he should of done this and done that from the comfort of our home but not making a split second decision could of cost him his life. fwiw I ing hate cops and think most are pieces of but I think the cop had reason to fear for his life and the safety of others in this situation.

    Running away and fighting a cop is a smart thing to do? Tell me more about how a 50 year old man doesn't know better.

    Doesn't matter. Streets are a war zone.

    I'll be the one to say it since he was running away.

    How much immediate danger is someone in when a person is actively running away from him?

    I can't make that call. I wasn't the one in the situation. We can all be an armchair quarterback and say he should of done this and that but we weren't the ones chasing a man down and then have that man take a taser from you. As I said I can see how he thought he was in danger or the lives of others were in danger.

    It's not like the other cases Unless there was more we didn't see then yep this was a murder.
    The Tamir Rice video showed two cops pulling up and shooting a an kid in the chest. They then claimed that they warned him 4 times to drop the weapon ( a toy gun).

    That's pretty impressive considering that they shot him withing two seconds of stopping the car. The cops lied and the city blamed the kid for his own death.

    -Eric Garner was choked to death from behind, it went viral and it didn't even go to trial.

    first of all, there was no fighting in said video. Second, running from a cop is not punishable by death. Keep being the dumbest guy on ST though, it's amusing.

    The gun is for protection. It is your last line of defense if you as an officer feel like your life is at risk. Had the perp been trying to attack the officer the officer would've been right to shoot.
    Is there really no better way to defend yourself than with a gun?

    Hearing stories like this sucks:

    "...... Officers also learn to constantly scan their surroundings and process all that data as they approach. “They are taking in a lot of information in a short period of time and have to formulate a plan just like that,” said Kries, snapping his fingers

    Police say that ultimately, it is the suspect who dictates what happens, whether he or she follows the officer’s commands or actively resists. “If you comply with an officer’s orders, the chance of being involved in a shooting is minimal to none,” Kries said.

    However, said Kries, “If I tell you, ‘Don’t move’ and you move, I would have to react at the moment or possibly be killed.”

    If a noncompliant person makes a quick move, the officer does not know if he is going for a phone, a knife, a replica gun or a lethal firearm.

    "I don’t know a gun is fake until I hold it in my hand,” Kries said.

    That was the case last year in a shooting involving a Sonoma County sheriff’s deputy that left a 13-year-old boy dead. The teen was carrying an Airsoft BB gun that resembled an AK-47, authorities said. A deputy ordered him to drop the weapon, but the boy turned and pointed it toward the deputy, who responded by opening fire.

    The county’s district attorney ruled that while the shooting was a tragedy, the use of lethal force was a reasonable response under the cir stances, and no charges would be brought against the deputy......."
