Seriously. I understand what Rex Ryan is saying.... Case in point...that shooting by the transit officer in the bay area 2 years ago....if we can't trust the police to keep the lives of the innocent(until proven guilty) safe, then what use are they? If they are just going to blast everything/one that moves then they are useless and deserve the same treatment right? We put those that can take/save lives under extreme microscopes....doctors, lawyers, judges, etc...why don't we properly train and test these officers? The excuse that "people make mistakes" can't always fly when a life is on the line...

^ Bruh, you're seriously over analyzing the situation and making all these hypothetical assumptions.Like I said earlier, you CANNOT advance at a cop in a threatening manner with a weapon in your hand and expect not to be shot. Period.I don't care what the lead up to the situation was. Yeah taser cop made some mistakes on how he handled the situation but the perp made the critical mistake when he raised that weapon, and it cost him his life.You have to understand man in high stress situations like these where seconds count and lives could be at stake, many people react on instinct, not training. If you wanna get hypothetical, for all we know, it coulda been taser cop's second week on the job. We just don't have enough info about the situation at this point. But no amount of simulated training can prepare you for the real deal. Just like alot of people SAY what they would and wouldn't do if someone pulled a gun out on em or whatnot. But let you be staring down the barrel of a .45. All that "what you WOULD do" goes out the window for most. Anyway, I'm off topic but yes, I do believe the first 5 were completely justified. The second 5 from taser cop, not so much. But again like I said earlier, how do we know WHICH BULLET actually KILLED the guy?- Preciate it.
