He was an undercover police officer and he was not using a weapon & did not reach for parts of his body or clothes where weapons might be stored, his body language, tone of voice and manner of talking did not present the intent of trying to kill or hurt them but only fighting to try to escape
A lot of the videos of black people getting shot or tasered involve a display suggesting they actually are trying to hurt the police
Other videos claim that was a undercover investigation
@shortstories Well, he should have identified himself. Perhaps, blown his cover but not anyone's problem but his.
Yes, the Blacks have a penchant for resisting, nevertheless, the standard should be universal.
This cops job is to apply the standard. NOT adjust it to suit needs.
I understand they are under orders from the Chief and ultimately the Mayor.
Cops job is to protect the government. NOT the Citizen.
When you understand this it changes your thinking.
