I think the impared story is just a way to smear him and is just a story and is not based upon facts.

I think the 'chart' at the inquest was a way to smear him.

BUT, I think that anyone who is on long-term medications such as muscle-relaxants, sedatives, or pain-killers is impaired in some way.

Since police claim Mr. Scott didn't INSTANTLY respond to their commands to GET DOWN, and seemed 'confused', it is possible he was slightly 'impaired'.

Since his gun was in a zippered pouch, he would have been slow at getting it out of the pouch and cocking the hammer, had police actually allowed time for that to even happen. Instead, the first officer started firing because Mr. Scott 'moved' (or didn't, depending on which officer you ask).

The police shooting Mr. Scott SEVEN TIMES had nothing to do with any drugs.

Since the first officer TAPPED Mr. Scott on the shoulder and told him to TURN AROUND, it means they COULD HAVE just TACKLED HIM instead of SHOOTING, given there was a CROWD of INNOCENT BYSTANDERS who could get hit by the gunfire.

That is why this is ALL WRONG. The police 'on scene' rushed to judgment and decided to endanger the crowd, rather than themselves.

Yes that is right, all we are seeing now is the coverup. In the words of O the police acted stupidly. In the words of most sane people the police commited a crime.
