it's a lot to ask of cops that they make proportionate tit for tats in the midst of a struggle. If someone puts up that much of a fight they're liable to get shot down. Best course of action is to not put up that sort of fight. And if you feel you have to, because the cops are in the wrong, just know that you might die right there.

It's not a lot to ask, since other countries have WAY lower rates of deaths by cop.

Other countries don't have the same mix of 2A and systemic social problems. But mostly, most other developed nations are not as politically conservative.

The DA rules that tasers are deadly weapons when he chose to charge the police officers that used tasers on those college students. Although now he’s trying to say it’s not a deadly weapon. Obviously all bullshit. But if you don’t want tasers to be considered deadly weapons then I hope you’ll campaign for the early release of those officers who used them on college students? No? Didn’t think so

You’re reading a lot that isn’t there, my dude.
