He was out of his mind enough to fight with two police officers, steal a taser and shoot it at them. Whether or not he was a threat to the officers in that exact moment after shooting the taser he clearly could have posed a threat to the community.
So yes, he did pose a serious threat and had to be stopped. He brought his death upon himself through his own actions. My feelings on this are completely independent of his race or other superficial characteristics.
- xorfish 6y agoYou know, the US is the only developed country where police officers that are called on an unarmed drunk person, end up killing him. You can find excuses for nearly every instance all day, but in the end you can't expect model behaviour from a drunk person. You can however expect two well trained sober offers to handle something like this without an escalation to deadly force. I mean 40 times higher than the developed world. Do you agree, that this is an unacceptable level of violence?
