        Irresponsible leaving the Taser with the intoxicated man. Irresponsible shooting to death an intoxicated man. #everythingisblackandwhite

        Hlad you can lecture a police officer on how to do his extremely complicated and stressful job. Join the force!

        They are trained to handle stressful situations. I have great respect for police and have worked with them. This Officer is not all Police

        When firearms are present the risk of officers being disabled to the point of not be able to protect self leads to a deadly force situation

        That's how some of them get their rocks off. They don't even consider other, non leathal, options.

        Why was a taser left in the room to begin with? Did the nurses not clean the room before he arrived?

        Could have saved hospital money if the cop had just shot him before bringing him to the hospital. It was only a damn taser! Trigger happy
