Personally, I think it ought to be standard policy that if you flee from a police officer, you will be shot. That way there is not uncertainty of the outcome. There is no justifiable reason for someone to flee police. This officer was polite and not threatening in any way while he was questioning Mr. Scott.

Are you serious?

Really?

You honestly believe that anyone stopped, at any time, who may or may not, depending on the officer(s) or citizen(s) involved, can be summarily executed based upon whether or not the officer(s) claim they were fleeing is valid or invalid?

You really believe that any officer can be trusted to be judge, jury and executioner???

I am speechless.

Totally agree. When an officer has someone under arrest, uses a command instruction to stop or be shot, that’s it as far as I’m concerned. Running from the cops, on foot on in the car, is the most dangerous thing that can happen to bystanders and innocents.
