is it just me...isnt there a lot of difference between a gun and taser?
Did BART cop who killed Oscar Grant mistake gun for Taser? | San Francisco Bay View
1. The manual states that the Taser X26 weighs 7 ounces. Depending on model and bullets loaded, a Glock pistol can weigh from 25-38 ounces. You dont have to be a weapons expert to feel the difference between holding about two pounds and holding less than half a pound try it.
2. Police pistols are all black, sometimes with a very dark brown grip. The X26 has bright yellow markings on it. It also has a 2-digit LED display.
3. The X26 has a safety on the grip that must be released. The Glock safety is on the trigger.
Pretty much. The officer in question will serve his two years, any rioters will be arrested, and we will all move on with our lives.so thats it...unfortunate...and moving on?
Considering that they arrested the other brawlers without additional shootings, and that the Jury convicted him of involuntary manslaughter, I don't believe the officer in question is a murderer.so do you think the cop got away with murder?
It's an amateurish mistake that police cannot afford to make, which is why I am glad he has to serve some prison time.there is no hinting.....just curious....i didnt know all that about his background. i do wonder about his training...mistaking a taser gun for a glock....but in the heat of the moment many things happen.
