He may have had his taser out at one point, but it was several MINUTES before the shooting happened.
There are 2 cops trying to restrain the victim.

You are obviously not "a reasonable observer"...

Your proof for that timeline is? And, so what? The point is that he knew where his taser was when he took it out and then when he put it back. You expect me to believe that the third time's a charm for making the mistake? And why would he put it away only to take it out again?

They are succeeding in restraining the victim. He is on his belly, partially in cuffs with two cops on his back.
He isn't struggling. They are yanking him around to put the cuffs on him in their typical gentle way, but he is not fighting back.

So on the one hand we have me saying that a restrained civilian shouldn't be shot in the back and killed and on the other we have you saying that it's perfectly reasonable for a cop to shoot a guy who is clearly under the control of two other cops and I am the unreasonable one? Really?
