So what is a cop to do when someone resists arrest? Steals their taser and goes to use it on the cop possibly so they can incapacitate the cop and take their fire arm in order to the KILL the cop? We must have some rule of law!

Btw for those that dont know, this woman was fine with police taking him to jail when he was sentenced for child abuse and child neglect.

Well vandalism isn't the answer. These protests, - smashing and damaging businesses etc is not the way to get change

Didn't he fight the officers for their gun? Isn't that why he got shot? They won't be happy until the police in the USA are as useless as the UK police.

So your husband tried to run, pulled the cops taser, and refused to settle down, but its the cops fault he was shot....

See your media’s continuous inciting, they are our greatest enemy,

So your crime BF should not have stolen a taser from the police, fired at police and done the right thing by accepting that he was drunk and just copped punishment, if he had a Brain, he would be alive
