What exactly did the cop do wrong to warrant him losing his job?
The suspect was increasingly resisting arrest, therefore the cops reacted as followed.
They shot him three times. AFTER he pointed the stolen taser at them as he was running.
I honestly can't think of any other way that could've played out other than shooting once.
At this point, I just can't rationalize an officer being fired in THAT PARTICULAR SITUATION.
Again, I can't stress this enough. Everybody was saying: just wake him up and let him go on his merry way. In a car. While drunk. He could've killed more people than that officer did.
He failed the sobriety test. Had it went smoothly, he likely would've been cited or spent the night in jail. Instead, one bad choice led to another in quick succession.
I'm not outraged that he died, I'm more outraged that people are jumping to conclusions without looking at the full story.
It's like they are trained to think: Black interaction by cop = RACIST by default. They are human beings, not machines. So are we. We need to stop with this black and white thinking and use reasoning and evidence before just jumping the gun.
I'm just talking to a brick wall at this point. Back to your scheduled programming.
