It's just funny that your argument has crumbled into "should have followed instructions" and, as I previously pointed out, the egregious holes in that logic.

Furthermore as I previously stated, I felt the cops were in the the wrong in this situation, not because of something trivial like "their dispatcher said stand down" but for the much more logical reason that the driver did not pose a threat to anyone else at the time they shot him.
Who gave the order to stand down, did it come from a higher rank? Being ordered to stand down is not logical? At your employment when you are given specific instructions and do not follow them, they pat you on the back for that? On top of that you don't follow an instruction and kill someone and your employer cool with it? Where.they.do.that.at.

You are correct, he did not pose a threat when they shot him, they still did though didn't they. Like I said before, its must be real tough being an armed police officer with an armored vehicle, getting rammed at a whopping 5 mph- how scary.

That kid had to be stopped!!! Ramming your car into pigs, wtf did you think was going to happen??? The firing of the gun was justified imo.


I would agree if the cops had shot him while he as driving like a maniac through the streets because at that time he was posing an immediate threat to other people.

However once his truck got stuck in that field, he was no longer a threat to others and it is not up to cops to determine guilt or innocence. He should have been subdued and brought before a jury.

Based on the video it looks like the cops could have easily immobilized the vehicle and pepper sprayed the driver. Anything else is retaliatory.

You still don't get it man. If you say the cops are wrong for not following orders, than you are operating under the premise that cops should always follow orders.

I find it silly as I have read many articles over the years about police officers who disobeyed a command to shot, or even soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan who disobeyed orders to shoot civilians, and you are gonna sit there and tell me those disobeying cops and soldiers were wrong because they didn't follow orders.

I'm sorry man but I just don't think that the act disobeying an order is grounds enough to determine right or wrong like you do.
