Well, I'm not so sure there's a solution per se. There are just too many potential factors and scenarios to come up with a "fix all". Like in this case there you could set up the exact same scenario in 10 different examples, but change one single thing in each one and there may well be 10 different ideal ways to respond to each.
Otherwise, the best thing I can think of is to at least try to get everyone on the same page as to the parameters of justifiable use of deadly force.

The problem here is that the cop had to consider all of this in 3 seconds.
Agreed. But most of their instances of use of deadly force or not is going to be nearly split second. IMO any involvement of firearm possessed by perp or reasonable suspicion of firearm on perp, that gets the most leeway in justifiable use of deadly force. Knife in relatively close quarters, justifiable use of deadly. But as I consider taser to be less than lethal, a good bit of scrutiny is to be applied there.

If you don't have law an order, you don't a functioning society.
This assholes death is 100% on him.

How was the cop supposed to know the suspect didnt grab the other guy's gun as opposed to his taser?

Hold up. Please tell me the OP is not refusing to back down after the body can video. If so, he isn’t worth our time.
I just watched it and have edited the first post. I was wrong, 100% wrong.

EDIT: I was wrong, after watching the full body cam video the cops were 100% by the book and had no hostility or escalated the situation until Brooks resisted, stole a taser and fired it at them.
I was wrong and I shouldn’t have came to the emotional and uniformed conclusion that I did.
Was this statement prepared by your wife?
did you reach these conclusions on your own?

Well, I'd hope the other guy would have made that fact abundantly clear. They do tend to yell and advise each other of such things. In fact that would seem like a key aspect in training. Loud communication especially of matters such as that. Of course if other officer did communicate that, it would change everything. Deadly force is immediately applicable then. But just to assume that and to rely upon that assumption isn't reasonable in my mind. I think they have to role with what they know. I think the idea is to endeavor to avoid using deadly force as opposed to counting the reasons why you can use deadly force. I believe that's the public's expectation anyway.

Props to you for admitting that you (in my best Obama voice) “acted stupidly”.
These things are never what the left try to shape them to be. That is how they control you.

Kuddos to you
Sadly, emotion is dominating/clouding people’s judgement
Sadly, the media did the same thing you did
Sadly, there will be continued riots in Atlanta by folks who are not interested in facts. They have already made up their minds and the MSM and social media will echo their biases right back to them

Once again, not a leftist. It’s one topic that I’m emotional about.
When was the last time you saw a leftist admit they are wrong?

Props for being a man and admitting fault. Most people would just ghost out on a thread like this.

"come"
But I'll at least give you credit for owning your erroneous rush to judgment.
