There are differences between the George Floyd case and the Brooks case.
The latter grabbed a taser and punched the cop in the face.
Did anyone here ever think that punching a cop in the face works result in a low chance of being killed by that cop?
People are not supposed to attack cops.
If I'm a cop and a man in trying to arrest takes my taser and punches me, it's on.
And I'm a Democrat.
Shot him in the back after dropping his Taser. Back shooting cop is a low life POS.
Heat of the moment. Confusion due to being hit in the face. Shot in the back irrelevant.
A person who is running away from you is no threat to your physical safety therefore shot in the back is very relevant.
If I wanted to claim I shot a person in self defense , which by the way is the only time a cop is supposed to shoot anyone, and I shot him in the back then my claims of self defense go out the window and I am charged with second degree murder.
Why should a cop be held to a different standard?
