He pointed a non-lethal weapon rearward as he tried to escape. I think that hardly justifies shooting him, especially in a crowded parking lot in an urban area.

And again, if these two cops were slightly competent then the guy never would have acquired the taser in the first place.

You have no clue what you are talking about. Tasers aren’t always 100% effective, and if a criminal uses a taser on an officer it’s considered to justify deadly force because the suspect can grab the officers firearm and use it. That’s why officers get tased in training so they know what’s it like

We need cops that are held to a standard higher than private citizens are held to. Regular joe would certainly be arrested and tried for shooting a fleeing person.

You need to go do the training and see how difficult that is to do...... cops are human and have to make split second life and death decisions...... the guy fought them and stole a weapon..... I feel no sympathy for him.

Considered by whom to justify deadly force?

Watch closely and pay attention to when the officer ditches his taser in favor of his gun. Brooks attempts to use the stolen taser while continuing to run away. He misses and turns his head completely around, continuing to run away several steps before the officer pulls his gun and shoots him in the back. There was zero threat to the officer’s life at that point. He was at a distance and had backup.

If you think that was necessary you don’t value life.

You’re damn right I don’t value the life of this scum. The moment the culprit directs the taser towards the officers, he’s forfeiting his right to breathe.

You wouldn't have a problem if he was coming out of the womb at 8 months.

At least you’re honest about it.

Drunk man sleeping in his car ends up dead due to incompetent officers escalating the situation to where they had to shoot him in the back. Great work guys. Nothing wrong with this at all :rolleyes:

Maybe the dead man shouldn't have fought the law. As the Bobby Fuller Four once sang , he "fought the law and the law won."

You don’t understand the law and defensive tactics concerning a taser
