Don't be obtuse. He had expended his "ammo," else they'd have seen him pick up another rock. He was unarmed, they had NO legal reason to fear for their lives - a very necessary threshold to use lethal force, and they murdered him. They should be tried, not praised.

...in an assault a rock is classified as a deadly weapon .

...a thrown rock can kill and it certainly can maim ...cops are not expected or required to sustain injuries during the performance of the job .



Do you realize how much of a wimp you sound like for god's sake you don't shoot a man for throwing a rock.

If police got called to a scene where a man shot someone for throwing a rock at him he'd be doing life

I didn't know the US emasculated their cops after graduation.

...pay close attention - if someone was threatening me with a rock I would shoot him at least twice . Police should have the same right .

For the first time in a long time in these hate cop cases.. I unfortunately have to side against the cop. The man is mentally ill, throwing rocks, and only one person tried to taze him. Fact is they didn't try hard enough to stop this man before shooting him. When I was Active Duty we had worse than this guy in Afg. and if we shot and killed an Afg. Civilian for throwing rocks we would go to prison. Complete an utter bullshit. These guys aren't cops in my mind.. they are cowards who were afraid of a man with rocks .

...rocks are easy to find . And a person who has already assaulted a cop can be expected to continue the assault by other means such as a hidden weapon .

So, they shot a fleeing unarmed man. I'm sure they feared for their LIVES and therefore his murder is JUSTIFIED. No charges please, coworker DA.


Iirc it's legally justifiable to shoot a fleeing man if there's reason to believe letting him go is a danger to society.

For the sake of efficiency I'd say you should do it alongside the circumcision. You know, 2 birds with one stone.
