“I don’t see what the guy did to be shot.”

He was 5 over the speed limit.

“I don’t see what the guy did to be shot.”

He kept escalating the situation.

He is told to move. He doesn't.

He is told to turn around. He won't.

He is told to take his hands out of his pockets.

He doesn't.

All of those are danger signs to police.

He turned out not to have a weapon, other than personal weapons (his own body, hands and feet), but the officer could not know that.

It looks to me that is why he tased him.

Then he says the taser had no effect, and the physical fight started.

He is fighting with the guy when he shoots him.

When a person has engaged with an armed man in a physical fight, it becomes a fight for a deadly weapon.

The officer still did not know what the suspect might have had in his pockets.

FIVE over the speed limit? Can you verify a source?

Why all the public enemy treatment?

Out of control cop. Looks like murder to me.

Who “lost” the 26seconds of tape? There is the guilty party. Innocents have nothing to hide.

Cop training treats all citizens as degenerste criminals.
