Why wait till all the evidence is in why not just hang the guy now. Glad we have impartial jurors to decide guilt or evidence at the end of the trial.

He probably deserved it. Probably saved his family and many citizens of this country a lot of pain. He saved the taxpayer a lot of money for court and jail time. It was not murder though, unless you know something that no one else knows and the COP knew him and plotted to kill him. I am sure that like others, his family will cash in on this. Probably the only good thing he did for them.

I very seldom agree with CNM, but regarding this post I do.
The post is as low as it gets. Shameful.

Even in the old western movies it was unlawfully to shoot a man in the back while he’s running away. Bottom line.

Every time A black person get unlawfully killed. There are riots. Solution : stop killing people in the streets just because you can.

When I was young Policemen were peace officers today they are a kick ass and take names squad. And there were thugs and gangs back then as well. There was also a lot of organized crime families all across the country. On top of that there were Motorcycle gangs just getting started and they run rampant over civilians trying to establish their culture.

I’m sure there are Exceptions but in these last several black people killings In recent memory none of these people were armed. Furthermore there were always several policeman at the scene when these assaults the place. You would think but several trained policeman Could easily contain any one person.
Something is really wrong in this picture !

Love the cop haters. They already have the cop charged and convicted so let’s skip everything and go directly to execution. To hell with that due process crap.

Let’s backup and look at what we know and more importantly what we don’t know. We know that Brooks violently resisted arrest. We don’t know why and neither did the cops. They just knew he resisted violently to the point of punching one in the face and taking the taser. Why did he take the taser? Again, we don’t know. Was it so the cop couldn’t use it on him? If he took it use it why didn’t he do it right then and there? He had the opportunity. Again we don’t know. Given the violent nature of his resistance were the cops now compelled to apprehend? Why did he resist so violent to a measly DUI? Was he hiding something else? We and the cops don't know. Did the cops ever search him for weapons or contraband? We don’t know but they probably hadn’t. They usually do so once they arrest someone. They didn’t get to that point. He resisted and broke loose. Lastly he turned and pointed something at the cop. Given that the cops probably did not, as yet, search him, was the cop 100% (not 99% or less) sure that it was the taser being pointed at him and not a gun? After all the cop had plenty of time to determine what it was and make a decision of what to do – what maybe 1 second. Again, something we do not know. When something is pointed at a cop especially during an altercation how are they supposed to react? Actually we all know the answer to that. Cop haters - he should do nothing and maybe get shot himself. Cop supporters - shoot immediately to protect himself and possibly others. How many people have been shot by turning with a cell phone or keys in their hands? But all the Monday morning cop hating quarterbacks knew it was a taser. I guess we must admit and apparently accept the fact that nowadays it’s fashionable to rush to judgement and convict when it’s a white cop / black suspect shooting, even by an alleged retired cop who responded to this thread. So let’s skip any possible exculpatory evidence and get right to the execution. Screw that due process crap!

He will lose. A taser has been deemed a non-lethal weapon in the courts, multiple times. No other actions could be deemed as placing no one in immediate danger. The subject was fleeing, that was all. The officer's had is car and identity. He could've been picked up later. The officer will be charged with a homicide.

Yep..... equal justice for all.........except if you are a white cop that shoots a black person.
I feel so bad for the cops.....there is so much hatred. I'm tired of hearing it.....I'm tired of seeing it.

Great message! I’m waiting for the police across this country to say enough and a mass walkout occurs. See how well these liberal left Namby Bamby mayors and governors are going to handle security then!

Totally correct. If the person was white, he would have submitted to being arrested and if not then if he was shot and killed, no one would know about it or care. AND the Wendy's would be open today for business.

[jacksonbrown]

No, the criminal was running to his car.

The officer, honoring his oath "to serve and protect", prevented the drunk (and probably drugged-up) low-life from killing innocent women and children.

There!

It's not a color issue.

True that. My solution is for Police to carry 2 pistols, one loaded with lead bullets and on loaded with rubber bullets. Use enough powder/power in the rubber cartridges to knock down a man running away. No need to use lead and terminated the poor drunk. I am talking rubber bullets with more power than the low power gas-powered one used recently in crowd dispersal
