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.

I can almost guarantee you is the suspect was white the result would have been the same. My brother was a police officer for 25 years. Every day, day in and day out, these cops deal with the dregs of society and get little thanks for it. Maybe the answer is to give them six months off every three to four years to lower there stress levels.
