An officer shot by a taser is incapacitated for 5 seconds. Plenty of time for a couple head-stomps and, perhaps, a few caps in the cranium with his own sidearm. Wake up.
At the point of the shooting there is no taser to use against the officers. And if your mind was not so closed you could likely see that clearly.
If he had to be in jail ( and not killed minding you,) they would have caught up with him later.
But since you see for yourself the way he was treated JUST FOR INSUBORDINATION, not representing any threat, then being incarcerated for Blacks ( or dealing with police in general) = walking a thin line between life and death.
Floyd was yet another recent example of it.
But you can keep on pretending that there is no such problem, and this whole BLM thing came out of nowhere.
So don't try to pull this "mental help" crap again - go and argue with all those crowds out there, explain to THEM that they have no reason whatsoever to protest and riot.
What do you care about MY opinion now?
You don't seem so much to have an opinion. It doesn't rise to that level. More like gibberish, folderal and a hint of balderdash on the side.
Sorry that is the facts and there are a couple of analysis that lay it all out. It is only nonsense to those who approach the facts with a closed mind.
I am not in the least interested in analysing what should be done. Just accurately reporting on what happened. And stating my opinion that it would appear to rise to the level of murder or manslaughter.
Again, I have not read anywhere where the cop stated he knew the taser could not be used. You keep repeating this, yet not one time you have provided such reference.
You also fail to address, hell just outright ignore, the DA's own statements on tasers, and the fact under Georgia law, a taser is classified as a firearm and is considered a dangerous weapon.

But the officer didn't know that. Did the perp throw it to the ground? If he had, and was shot thereafter, perhaps there would be some merit to your position, but that is not, from what I see, to be the case.

The tazer fired. The DA showed a still picture of it firing probes. Stop misinforming or lying. But even if it didn't fire that is mere speculation based on nothing that the officer would've known for sure whether the tazer was still loaded. So according to your argument the officer knew it was loaded then.

Sure-sure, but as I've said - what does it matter.
You can can argue with me all you want, but it won't change the opinion of these crowds out there.
And they are the ones who share my opinion ( I assume.)
And THAT's what matter for the time being.

It's not worth it to even try and change their opinion, they are a mix of outright racists and knuckle dragging simpletons. Their opinion quite frankly is irrelevant.

What on earth are you talking about? Of course the officer knew it was fired. And it was fired in his direction. But he also knew that was the last shot available in that taser. And he was very likely wearing a ballistic vest which would block the vast majority of possible hits from a taser. Darts in an arm might well take out the arm but the rest of the body goes on.
But the officer shot Brooks after that so he knew there was no usable taser in Brook's hands. And he hit Brooks twice in the back...so Brooks was not facing him or charging him, or attempting to back him off with the taser.
Gosh you poor dudes seem to be unable to understand the simplest of things.
