I think anyone fleeing a police officer should know they will be shot. If that policy were in place, it would put the responsibility for their own lives squarely on the shoulders of the person being questioned. It would also protect innocent bystanders. There was no reason for Mr. Scott to flee the scene. If he hadn’t he would still be alive.

If Slager had chosen to pursue and subdue, Scott would likely be alive. I doubt Scott’s life had any value, in your eyes.

Then why didn't the cop start shooting the moment Scott started running from his car?

Interesting that a "conservative" wants government agents to have that much control over citizens.
