Running from the cops is a foolish mistake, but it shouldn’t come with a death sentence, nor is the cop authorized to play judge, jury and executioner.

Proportionality is vital to any justice system worthy of the name, and it’s not reasonable to assert that a street execution is proportional to the crime of fleeing the police. Any system where the enforcers of the law are not the ones most strictly bound by it is tyrannical by definition.

This is Bill of Rights 101 material. If that man did not have the right to trial by jury before his execution at the hands of the government, you and I do not either.

He did more just run from a cop. He fought a cop and grabbed his taser. This is what set the shooting in motion, not just running from him.

Bravo! We stand up for everyone's rights because we are part of the group of everyone.
