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.

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.

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

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.

He was not a threat. AT no time were the officers in danger. They spoke with him and he was non-threatening. Police officers lack training to deal with someone in crisis. There is NO reason that man should've died for this.

Just stop this right now. He was in the wrong and people like you will never see that.

DP. He should most likely be in jail. Alive. I hope you can see the difference between the two

I hope YOU can see the difference between someone following the rules and this guy. Why can’t people just sit down when requested? He ran into the middle of the road and didn’t follow instructions. I guess if he got hit by a car you’d blame that on police as well. Just and fyi the rest of us are TIRED of fake racism. I’m the LA poster and at the protest location in my neighborhood) where there is always someone protesting (and often I will honk in agreement) there was one person there yesterday with their police brutality sign. One. The rest of us understand this is NOT George Floyd. Stop trying to make fetch happen. You’re not going to spread lies about my city. Gtfo.

So if your loved one gets killed by police for a traffic stop, you're fine with it? Because he didn't follow the rules? The punishment is death if you don't listen.

I have a feeling that you don't think the punishment is death when it's you and yours. That's not fake racism.

Do I think this is okay? No, obviously. But I would also be able to see, after watching the video, the part my loved one played in this situation. But you only see racism and police brutality in everything. You can’t see what other people see, and maybe that’s because of your own lives experience. The rest of us don’t see what you are seeing.

That is because you are a white woman, and you sit comfortably in the fact that this will likely never happen to you and yours. So you can sit in your bubble and make judgements knowing that you will suffer nothing near the same.

"you sit comfortably in the fact that this will likely never happen to you and yours.So you can sit in your bubble and make judgements knowing that you will suffer nothing near the same."

What that a family member who is a teacher, its the middle of a school day and they are high on cocaine and weed, causing car accidents by running in the middle of the road, and not obeying police instruction? Yeah, don't think that will happen. Also, why are you ASSuming the poster is white? That's called a "judgement." POT meet kettle.

Watch the whole video.

I did. There was no crime. Non need to detain. No need to handcuff, he was free to go.

This is why cops need to never respond to these things, they totally escalate

The man literally ran out into traffic. Do you not get that? Watch the video again.

If the police had not intervened (as you propose) they would have been guilty of negligence.

The police acted properly here. It is unfortunate Mr. Anderson decided to take extreme amounts of mind altering drugs, and then drive around busy public streets (before he caused an accident).

He needed and EMT not a cop. When cops respond to medical emergencies it is likely going to go badly.

Everybody needs to implement this.

And how do you know Keenan was high on drugs? Erratic behavior can be caused by many things. This is an anonymous forum and unless posters indicate personal details, we cannot know. Even then we don’t know.

THERE WE GO you didn't even watch the video, the whole video because if you did you would know they went over which drugs where in his system from the hospital tests. You were off to the races without even knowing the full story. It makes sense now.

Shocked and appalled by PPs defending the police action. Clearlynoverkill. The man was begging for his life. He said apK and they kept tasering him. There were six armed officers and one unarmed man on the ground.

This does not represent justified force.

Keenan may you not die in vain.

Shocked and appalled by PPs defending the police action.

Clearly police force overkill.. The man was begging for his life.

He said OK to not twisting them and they kept tasering him.

Watch the video for yourself.

I am white and this is not OK. I am not anti police or defund the police but or rain the police longer as in countries where police have good community relations because they know how how to judge when lethal force is necessary.

Weird how you reply to this post with the same sentence structure as the “op”………

I agree.

It appears more than half of this thread is OP sock-puppeting or continually responding with the same nonsensical claims.
