Is jaywalking thought to be so terrible that it justifies being killed on the spot, as "resisting" is? No, no it's not.
Did the bus driver hit them with a bus -for the offense of jaywalking- as the officer shot the man for the offense of resisting? No, no he did not.
Now, are you sure you just made some comment on the way -I- think?
Where did you get this shooting them for resisting arrest from? There are instances, where you can resist arrest, and yet there would be no justification that you where possibly intending harm to someone, and could be shown in a video (running away comes to mind). In many of these circumstances, there would be no warrant for lethal force.
Perhaps because of the context that we where talking about; I assumed some justification that someone could be trying to get a weapon while resisting arrest and that the benefit of the doubt should go to the cop if there is any question. This is what I have been talking about concerning resisting arrest, not open license to shoot someone for just resisting.
