[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm sad by some of the posters here where in 2023 there is no personal responsibility or accountability for any personal actions and this is now acceptable to most of society. This man, a teacher who teaches kids, was high on cocaine, weed, who knows what else, causing car accidents in the middle of the road yet he will somehow be named a hero.[/quote]
Does he deserve to die for that, you psychopath?[/quote]
NP

I say frequently that personal responsibility has gone the way of the dodo. 
He may not have DESERVED to die, but his death is not shocking considering his actions.

If some idiot runs out in front of a speeding train because he thinks he can beat it, and he dies, did he deserve to die?  Nope. But, his death is not at all shocking and there is plenty he could have done to prevent it. [/quote]

False equivalence

Police are trained to respond to such threats or lack thereof.

Speeding trains are not.

The level of force was way disproportionate to the threat he posed six armed officers. [/quote]

I’m sure they are trained to tase people who are a danger to themselves or others. Which they did. [/quote]
 Yeah right - six of them on one terrified unarmed man in the ground pleading for his life and not resisting arrest.

Don’t let evidence or reality get in the way of your dogma …[/quote]

When giving the above advice, look in the mirror...[/quote]

Looking square at it - unlike the unhinged defender of excessive police force …[/quote]

Maybe you should go join the huge protest going on in downtown LA right now.

Oops. There isn’t one. [/quote]

They are dealing with other crises right now - evacuations following flooding, intense rain - 16 inches of rain in one day in some parts of southern cal.  Floods and mudslides shit down roads across LA.[/quote]

No dear. People just don’t agree with you that this was some crazy racist murder of a teacher by a cop. [/quote]

Honey, the stats speak for themselves … sorry you have trouble grasping nuance in unconscious ways racism plays out in real lives.

Many many people do agree that his death was unnecessary and six armed police officers on top of an unarmed mentally unwell man was excessive and cruel. If they were trained better they would have got the LAPD mental health unit involved and had fewer men on top of him tasering away even after he stopped resisting arrest and was pleading for his life.

He is someone’s beloved family member and friend. He did not deserve to die like this. [/quote]

No, he didn't. I'm sorry he made the choices he did to get high on cocaine, drive in a way that endangered his life and those of others, got involved in a hit and run, and resisted arrest .[/quote]
