        @WSJ He reached for the gun just as the victim started to run. He didn't even bother to run after him. Trained no doubt to just polish boots

        @WSJ yeah, training was clearly the problem. How else would you know not to shoot blk people in the back 8 times without cause?

        @WSJ #Slager murder of #WalterScott is NOT "training" issue. It's a humanity issue. We ain't gonna staff development our way out of this.

        @WSJ This is exactly what I was saying. Cops need more training in order to deal with stick situations.

        @KerimShrugs agreed more training needed. But you don't need a training to shoot an unarmed man

        @obasoko They need more training on what to do in situations like this, so that they DON'T automatically reach for the pistol, which is easy

        @obasoko Anyone knows how to shoot a gun. It takes a better trained cop to diffuse a situation like this. Thus, more training.

        @KerimShrugs so you think the cop would have done the same if the victim was "white" ??? More training needed no doubt..

        @JMHaircut @WSJ - I can't figure why the cop did this. Common sense should have prevailed. Glad they got a video of it all.
