And NO, a taser is not considered a lethal weapon.
Why was the cop picking up his brass for 2 minutes...before he even went to the victim?
Maybe because he knew once the detectives figured out how far away the victim was, while running away...he would be in deep doo-doo?
And NO, this is NOT justification for citizen violence or property damage.
It (along with the posts we'll see here) does, however, show...exactly why black people across the nation are so angry.

A taser may not be lethal. But it is enough force to disable the LEO so that his lethal gun can then be taken. The stupid criminal fired the officer's weapon at him while fleeing. The operative word is "fired" (not fleeing). The shooting was justified and warranted and I am glad another stupid criminal of any color is off the streets permanently.
Of course, we will shortly hear about how he was just turning his life around and the young child he has. I'm sorry. The
child is something HE should have been thinking about ... not me.
