Again, regardless of what the kid was trying to do, the state attorney was quite clear.

You cannot kill somebody, under Oklahoma law, when they are no longer in position to harm you.

Robbery or not.

Them’s the law and the state attorney knows them.

You cannot kill somebody, under Oklahoma law, when they are no longer in position to harm you.

Why then were you stating that you cannot shoot someone in the back or if they are prone? Why didn't you say this the first time?

Are you going to keep making crap up as you go? Are you going to keep changing your story?

According to your "logic" O.J. is indeed innocent.

I've already mentioned the 1984 Goetz case since there are some parallels to the matter under discussion in this thread

Then there there's the Rodney King case of March 1991 which also entails a videotaped record of the events. Like Ersland, controversy (and days of riots) arose because of the contention that the LAPD continued to subdue the perp (King) after he was (allegedly) brought under control.

1). Do you see any similarities between the King/LAPD case and that of Parker/Ersland?

2). Do you think the LAPD engaged in excessive force as was charged? And what did you think of the acquittal of the police officers by the Ventura County jury?
