Is personal responsibility ever in play anymore?
A) if he chooses not to drink and drive drunk which leads to falling asleep in a Wendy's drive thru for God's sake, he never gets killed
B) if he chooses not to resist arrest, he never gets killed
C) if he chooses not to grab the officers taser, he never gets killed
D) if he chooses not to flee and then turn and point the taser at the officer, he never gets killed
I agree that the officer could have shown restraint and NOT fired his weapon, but who among us could positively say that in that particular millisecond moment, with a weapon pointed you, that any one of us would NOT have made that move? Why must we jump to the conclusion that racism was the motive?
