Ok. what does that have to do with not following proper protocol and just arresting him b/c of those reasons?



thats not what we're are debating.....you're deflecting.

Im saying he was bombed out of his mind on drugs and alcohol

You're saying he was just a little drunk



We'll just have to agree to disagree

what are you talking about? He failed the field sobriety test....on camera.


All I was saying the way he was behaving the cops had every reason to believe that his health was in danger and he was a danger to others....calling EMS to check a person out doesnt mean they are going to automatically give him a DIU...he could have been having a medical emergency.

Can you think of a scenario where it's ever ok to shoot someone in the back?

So it's okay to fire a taser at a cop jut as long as you're running away?

I literally said i did not think he was a little drunk.

We are debating what "bombed" out of his mind means, which makes no difference here, and is what you are deflecting away from the point i was making, that police have to follow procedures before arresting someone for DUI.

I said "bombed" to me meant can't talk at all as in speech so slurred you can't understand anything, can't walk or stand up without help.
You're saying "bombed" means really shitfaced, and i agree. the guy was obviously wasted, and on more than alcohol. He was still capable of talking and having a conversation with the police, albeit like a really drunk person, and he was able to perform some of the field sobriety tests, failing them, but at least he was able to stand to do them. And he was obviously not too "bombed" to wrestle with two guys and run away.

Eh. He wasn’t a public threat.
Someone that drove drunk out of his mind, then fought and overpowered two cops, then stole a cops taser and shot at the cops isnt a public threat?


Dude, come on

TIL weapons don't work if you're running in the opposite direction you're pointing them

They really should tell more people about this

I don't disagree
Maybe that's what they were going to do after they arrested him. EMS doesn't come to a scene unless they know there are no dangers, and police are the ones that determine the area is safe for them. How do you know they weren't going to call EMS after arresting him?

He was obviously so "bombed" that he punched a cop, stole his taser and shot it at him....




What person in their right mind does something like that? No one

Only people that are out of their mind does stupid shite like that

The cop cannot make the assumption that the perp will continue to run if that perp is using a weapon while fleeing.

Look up Vickie Wax. Guy punched her in the face knocking her out. Took her gun to shoot two other people and then shot her when he had the chance to flee even though she was incapacitated. Someone choosing to fight a cop, stealing the cops weapon, and then using that weapon on the cop is going to be met with lethal force and rightly so. Running away while using the weapon is completely irrelevant.

New to this thread. How many people are actually saying this was excessive force and shouldn’t of happened? And how many times has Atlanta burned and looted its city over this?

Maybe if you had followed what i said, instead of debating what "bombed" meant. you'd know that i'm not confused about it.

You are the one that said he was bombed out of his mind, and that they should have arrested him after he ran up on the curb. I said they have procedures to follow, which they did. You bitched about what bombed meant.

Isn’t he 40s IRL? How can you not be jaded at that age and know everyone sucks and hope Darwinism plays its part like it should.
