Looks like Down's is getting carried away. Over the line?

Secondly, everything you spoke to has been answered. They tried to subdue him with less force (Tazer), that did not work. At that point he got the metal object ready to swing and advanced towards the officer. Yes, they had a dog, but it has been explained by those who know that in that instance they are to not use it as it puts the dog at risk.

They absolutely did the right thing in shooting to take the guy down.

The only question here is about the second burst of 5 rounds by another officer. But the guy is out of sight at that time, so it is hard to see what is going on. Also, there was not a long delay between the 2 sets of 5 rounds.

The actions of the individual are what got himself killed. This is not the cops fault. The guy was going bezerk at a business. He was smashing up the windows per the story. When he came out he did not seem to be surrendering himself. The cops taze him. He starts advancing towards the officer wielding a metal object. They shoot.

If at any point the guy decided to stop, he does not die.

I'm not one to always stand up for cops. As a matter of fact, I'm pretty liberal when it comes to a lot of issues (especially when compared to the community on this board). However, this guy dug his own grave with his actions.

firstly you long winded pig lover nobody asked for your grammer or typing opinions . I dont care what a neo nazi like you thinks anyway.

You say they did the right thing by shooting that VICTIM and he was a victim of the police state .
This isnt China you moron . You same people that condone excesive police behavior are the same nuts that have your houses filled with guns and ammo
