If the double amputee was already dead, why did the cops shoot him?

He had already proven himself to be dangerous.

He did not respond to tasers. He refused to submit, and was armed with a deadly weapon.

He might have been subdued with some sort of net or webbing.

You don't always have all the tools you might wish.

What if they let him alone, and he stabbed someone else?

He was clearly a danger to society.

“A group of California police officers shot and killed a double amputee on Thursday as he tried to run away from them on his stumps after jumping out of his wheelchair.”

I have to ask, what kind of training did these officers receive? “Trainee, you need to be especially careful of the ones without legs. They just look weird and they move funny. Shoot first and ask questions later...”

If he had lived he wouldn’t have a leg to stand on in court.

If he was white and carrying a deadly weapon, I do not care.

Just do what the cops tell you to do.

When I see Babylon Bee headlines I think they’re real.

I don’t think this is a good thing.

Another dead double amputee? Didn’t they just shoot a dead double amputee yesterday?

I want to know more about these dead double amputees that cops keep shooting. Are they the Walking Dead Amputees?

This exceprt omits that he had large knife (butcher knife?) that he used to stab someone and was trying to throw it at police. Not such a clearcut issue.

Another career criminal that is about to be elevated to sainthood by “the community”.
Hide the Nikes, the booze and the big screen televisions, because “justice” is coming.

The family told The LA Times that he lost the lower half of his legs recently following a different altercation with police in Texas.

Yes?
