If it was a routine stop why was the man running away?

I believe I’ve heard that he was delinquent on child support payments and that there may have been a court warrant for him.

From what we see it looks like murder but I still want to see the whole video.

Info person on Fox said he had outstanding arrest warrant for non-payment of child support.

Perhaps he heard somewhere that cops may well just kill you and your dog... Hell, I’m a rich, white almost seventy year old disabled veteran and who has only had two encounters with the law. Both were speeding tickets BTW, and I’m terrified of cops...

He was getting tased. I would run like h@## to get away from a taser. I don’t care what they pulled me over for I would run from a taser. Those things are a nightmare.

Why is running away a death penalty offense?

Running away is not a threat to the officer.

He should not have been shot.

Because a deranged cop tazed him and was shooting at him?

Hmmm….. because there have been way too many incidents of out of control police playing judge and executioner and the man thought it might be the smartest (and even a reasonable) thing to do under the circumstances? Sorry but with a much greater emphasis on a ‘militarized approach to policing’, their reputation is rightfully taking a beating these days…. and shootings like this just confirm what people are already sensing and believing.

Maybe he got a vibe that the cop was a maniac and didn’t want to get shot?

Convenient question if one wants to help propagate murder by cop - anyone who runs is fair game for 8 shots to the back....
