Thats is one of the typically stupid things that gets said in threeads like this. He didnt get shot because his brake light was broken. He got shot because he had warrants, grabbed the tazer, then ran.
Thats doesnt justify the shooting but it certainly frames your comments as idiotic, prejudicial, and and outright wrong.
Funny, but I was unaware that having warrants and running requires immediate execution.
I have not yet seen anything in the OH Revised Code indicating that immediate execution is an accepted action for these - I'll bet that SC law is the same.
At best, running from a cop is a misdemeanor charge that must be charged, and requires a court of law to decide guilt or innocence.
At the time of the shooting, Scott was an innocent man, and should have been treated as such.
