Debtor Prison? Give us a f’ing break. Failure to pay “Court Ordered” child support means the perp is in contempt of court and he is in-effect stealing State money that you and me have to instead pay to raise his damn kids.

The law and all that is moral says you are obligated to support your children. Unless you also fall into that “non-support” class, why would any honorable citizen be against even forcing a person to support his children? Is that some part of the libertarian mantra?

Regardless of why the perp ran away. Its already established he gave the cop a false ID, had no proof of ownership of a Mercedez Benz, fought the cop mid way between the car and the shooting and in all likelihood had gotten the cop’s taser and shot the cop with it.

Once those things have occurred, the police are then charged with STOPPING the perp by any and all force necessary, which is exactly what the cop did.

Why was Walter Scott running away from a policeman who tried to stop him for a broken taillight?

I really don't think that's the line conservatives should be taking, here.

I don’t know why he was running away, scared maybe? Irregardless the officer shot him in the back without cause or need. I don’t know what was going through the officers mind, only he does, but I’m pretty sure no department has a policy in place that says shooting a fleeing non threat in the back is a righteous shooting.

“A bench warrant had been issued for his arrest for failure to pay enough child support. “

News reports (AP and others) say no warrant had been issued.

All the media and race hustlers are interested in is the color of the cop and the criminal. Not a peep when the colors are reversed, that does not fit their agenda.

The cop needs life in prison.

Due process is a thing of the past. So is religious freedom. Speech that is not PC as well. But cops shooting people in the back in other than exigent circumstance is still a crime one would hope. I don’t get too exercised about shooting somebody in the back. Its the circumstance that makes it criminal
