The same district attorney argued 2 weeks ago in a different case that a taser is a deadly weapon.

I think the cop was overcharged. But with a guy who just overpowered 2 officers trying to put him in handcuffs for DUI, stole one of the cop’s lethal weapons and shot it at the officer while trying to allude arrest, I would not have wanted to be in the officer’s situation having to decide in a split second how to respond.

      - The sentence that you are evaluating is itself grammatically incorrect which leads to the problem... - BaronVonZemo - 6:54pm 6/18/20

    - Actually it’s “who”. Or whom if you like. - jimbasil - 10:07pm 6/17/20
      - um, wrong, as usual. - und67 - 10:20pm 6/17/20
        Um, no, it’s the subject [NT] - jimbasil - 10:28pm 6/17/20

        Jim, what is the verb in that sentence? - MAS - 11:21pm 6/17/20
        I'm watching jim's grade school travails repeating themselves. I'm sure he deflected from admitting - BaronVonZemo - 9:10am 6/18/20
        
        I was going to have Jim reach the truth through questioning. [NT] - MAS - 10:24pm 6/17/20
      - What is the verb in that sentence, Jim? [NT] - MAS - 10:10pm 6/17/20
- Maybe that fuckwit should have considered the national ramifications of his actions - Chris94 - 9:03pm 6/17/20
  - He had 40 minutes to figure it out. [NT] - jimbasil - 11:10pm 6/17/20
  - Just for the record...I don't think the cop should have shot him. - NedoftheHill - 9:06pm 6/17/20
    - He deserves to be prosecuted, if only for gross stupidity - Chris94 - 9:09pm 6/17/20
      - What did the perp who stole the taser and pointed it at the cop think would happen? - iairishcheeks - 9:59pm 6/17/20
        “What did the slut think would happen, wearing a short dress and high heels to a bar?” - conorlarkin - 7:00am 6/18/20
        I guess he deserved to die, if only for gross stupidity. [NT] - iairishcheeks - 9:48am 6/18/20

        They will argue that as they should. [NT] - Frank L - 10:26pm 6/17/20
        
        The perp was a dirtbag. No question. Killing him during a national crisis was asinine. [NT] - Chris94 - 10:03pm 6/17/20
        Maybe, maybe not. - iairishcheeks - 10:09pm 6/17/20
        I doubt his training included running after a guy and shooting him in the back - Chris94 - 10:36pm 6/17/20
      - Easy to say when it’s not you in that second you have to decide. - Frank L - 9:12pm 6/17/20
        High five. [NT] - Cole - 9:49pm 6/17/20
        Elbow bump...please... [NT] - TakethetrainKnute - 9:55pm 6/17/20
        
        He shot the guy twice in the back. Gimme a break. - Chris94 - 9:22pm 6/17/20
        He shot the guy as he was turning. His table manners could have been better but it’s not criminal. - Frank L - 9:45pm 6/17/20
        Again, for the sake of the country, he just had to not shoot any fleeing black people in the back - Chris94 - 9:59pm 6/17/20
        Except those who took your taser and are turning to fire it at your head. That mob humping DA - Frank L - 9:51am 6/18/20
        
        Yep, it was just that simple, perfesser. [NT] - MAS - 10:06pm 6/17/20
        
        Have you ever done a police simulation training? [LINK] - MarkHarman - 9:30pm 6/17/20
        Gimme a break. Shot in the back. Twice. During a national crisis. - Chris94 - 10:00pm 6/17/20
        Sorry to hear. Must have hurt. [NT] - Frank L - 10:12pm 6/18/20
        
        Yeah, that second shot was gratuitous, wasn't it? - MAS - 10:06pm 6/17/20
        
        Exactly. I have. Had about as many bad as good shoots. [NT] - Frank L - 9:43pm 6/17/20
        
        He binge-watched Starsky & Hutch one weekend. [NT] - MAS - 9:37pm 6/17/20
        
        Would love to see you in a moment of stress. - Iggle - 9:28pm 6/17/20
        
        he fired the taser at the cop while running away, which is why he was shot in the back. I agree - irish93 - 9:25pm 6/17/20
    - Exactly, bad shoot, not criminal. [NT] - Frank L - 9:07pm 6/17/20
