Serious question — have you assessed what is posted at the link? And no, I never said those who find fault with Slager are unfair. I definitely say those who condemn him without doing due diligence are unfair. What’s fair is to assess all factors and apply the law.

I have assessed it. What is compelling is the final sequence and the final outcome.

Even in the Old West, shooting a man in the back was considered the slimiest thing anyone could do. Taking your time, planting your feet, assuming a proper target stance and squeezing off rounds at a fleeing and unarmed individual is distasteful and quite simply wrong. The nonchalant walk up to the downed man is equally distasteful.

If that is too hard for you to swallow, then you should seriously look deep within yourself to determine why many others do find it abhorrent.

Hannity was trying to get Sheriff David Clark to call this a bad shoot.

He said "I'll withold judgement until the investigation is complete."

Wise words.
