[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is awful and hard to watch. My heart breaks for that poor man who was terrified that he was going to die at the hands of the police and actually did. Why did they cuff him when it was just a car accident? And he flagged them down? I don't understand any of this. That poor man. [/quote]

I am going to guess his very erratic behavior, which the officer initially thought might be DUI-related but it turns out was more likely the result of the cocaine and marijuana shown to be in his system.  I tend to judge against the police very quickly on these things and wonder why they had to tase him what seemed like 4 times, but I guess the drugs could explain that?

This video from the LAPD and timeline is interesting.

I do feel awful for him, his family and his students.  [/quote]

But he was unarmed and not a threat. There were also 4-5 armed cops vs. 1 unarmed man. He clearly needed help. I don't understand why he had to be tased. It makes no sense in most civilized countries that don't regularly kill people for traffic incidents[/quote] he may not have had a gun but a car can be a deadly weapon when you are under the influence of drugs or alcohol. I tho k we can see that from the accident he caused. He’s an adult and should have known better. Did he deserve to die? No. But his decisions got him here. [/quote]

How many children did he put at risk, driving around in that condition before he crashed his vehicle?  [/quote]

So he deserved to die? WTF. Of course, he should be cited and charged for reckless endangerment but once he is in police custody you don't kill him. Do you understand the difference? Jesus Christ. [/quote]

WTF are you spouting off about?  Can you READ?  Where did anyone write: “he deserved to die”

(Hint:  they didn’t.  You made that part up yourself).[/quote]

Exactly. and LAPD's misuse of force and excessive brutality caused his death. As we all agree that death was not a reasonable outcome, LAPD officers must be fired immediately and charged. Thank you![/quote]

Did you watch the whole video? At the end the police said had cocaine and weed in his system. Explain to me how the cocaine intoxication didn't cause his death? You can't? Then how can you assume the police did?[/quote]
