[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's absolutely awful that Mr. Anderson lost his life.  Stop for a second and think though.  What should the officers have done instead when he continued to resist arrest?  Let him go?  Let him potentially get the upper hand in a fight that could lead them to being injured or killed?  Until you have walked in the footsteps of a police officer who has had to struggle with a suspect resisting arrest, you can't really see the full picture.  If you let the suspect get the upper hand then the tables can be easily turned on the officer.  Don't forget that the officers also don't know what he might do to others in the surrounding area.  Was he going to run into traffic and get hit by car? Perhaps strike a civilian? Sometimes going hands on with someone is done to prevent them from harming themselves.  It's still a tragic outcome.[/quote]
 He did not continue to resist arrest - he was on the ground pleading for his life and saying OK when they repeatedly tasered him. [/quote]
