Stop being so hard headed. If they were too pussy to restrain him without tasering him they shouldn't be cops to begin with. For the sake of the argument let's now say they needed to use force because he was being aggressive towards them. Is this what they are trained to do? NO. They are supposed to either use pepper spray or their sticks before they even get to the taser. Did that happen? No. So did they carry out their duties as they were trained to do? No. They might as well have shot the guy.
I wonder if you would be reacting the same way had this been YOUR family member. Would you let it go?
Would you say oh my son or daughter or mother or father were being aggressive it's ok they tasered them and they died?
