Should have obeyed the Police and not become combative.

Appeared he thought he was above the law and not obey the Police and the rule of law.

Anybody who knows about Police training knows when this individual turned violent he increased the threat to Police and they followed their training.

JUSTIFIABLE by law and training.

Seen enough of this already.

This will implement societal change.

From watching this and other videos, I do not see any excessive or unreasonable use of force. He fought, disarmed an officer of his taser, fled, turned and shot the taser at the officer and then got shot. The accused escalated the situation, not the officers. Had the officers been incapacitated from the taser, they could have easily been disarmed of their firearm. I hope they are exonerated if any civil, criminal or internal charges are sought.

Weird how they say he pointed the taser at the cops so they had to shoot him yet he was shot in the back twice...

Love the cops and hate the riots, but he didn't need to shoot him. Like Biden said - "shoot him in the leg." I wouldn't have done that though either.

3:01 Lets see. Physically assaulted both police officers. Stole taser from officer. Pointed taser at officer. What else did he need to do before he finally got shot?

The officer is going to get a ton of money from his wrongful termination lawsuit.

3:01, what's weird is you apparently didn't read the full story. He shot the taser at the officer over his shoulder. Please get your facts straight before you post idiotic comments. JUSTIFIED!!!

2:54 PM - Even if he had hit the officer with the taser and incapacitated him, there was another officer on scene with another taser and gun. Once the taser was fired off it was completely harmless, the threat of bodily injury to the officer no longer existed. It's also much easier to watch a playback without the adrenaline pumping and make the correct calls. The end result is that another person is dead at the hands of those sworn to protect and serve. When our police are granted deadly force they cannot make mistakes when these situations arise. I fully support the police however am sickened when I see them flying down Rt 50 well over the speed limit or setting up a revenue generator instead of driving the speed limit in traffic. Makes me wonder what other laws don't apply to them.

Hey Black's!! You want to walk away from a police stop?? Stop EMBARRASSING yourself. Always fighting, cursing, and running. THEN YOU GET DEAD. UMMMMMMM..WHAT SHOULD I DO?? WHAT SHOULD I DO?? MORON'S.

I must be missing something. He was sleeping off a buzz. When did that become a death sentence. He offered to just walk home. Why did that cop elect to create an unnecessarily ugly situation. The man was plenty friendly and respectful. They should have just seen him home.

Correct you are.
But the cops are tax collectors.
They work a for profit government that preys on citizens.

My problem with the protests are the racial slant. Cops are bad for all of us. The government is bad for all of us. It sicked these animals on us!

it's the failed DemonicRat politicians who have been in charge in these cities for the last 50 years. They have passed the laws and enabled the level of policing. It is also the failure of the citizens for continuing to elect these idiots! so who's the fools here?

11:33 please read your comment. You sound so foolish. But that's a SALISBURY University education for you. What's worse is you probably teach a government grant course there.

The police allowed him (drunk) to move the car (drive) into a parking space. I suppose that was a precursor to execution.

SMH with all of this.
