Those idiots could have made that end very badly. I won't pretend to know the whole situation but what I do know is that it only takes a few seconds of distraction for the situation to go from under control to a suspect stabbing an officer or worse a civilian because some moron thought he was being noble by yelling at a cop without thinking about what is even going on

"Hey, leave the poor man alone"

"What? Oh, okay. We will"

"You guys are fucking dumb!"

"Ma'am, that's very mean."

Fuck those cops! This is what tasers and pepper spray are for. He clearly wasn't trying to attack any of them. The 21' rule only applies if your sidearm is in your holster, not in your hand and already aimed at the subject... They had no justification to execute him.

Can you read the whole post before commenting? it says they did use a taser, and it didn't work on him
