Right? I love how cleverly the attorney for the family boxed the police in before they could start with that garbage. They were going to float the idea that having pointed the cops taser at the him (what a fuckup), the cop might fear for his life...but the police department insists that tasers are not lethal in cases currently before the same court.
I think that if a cop pulled his taser or any other weapon on me I should be within my rights to shoot him dead on the spot. Isn't that a good use of stand your ground laws? Thew cops out here tend to approach while announcing from a distance in a non threatening pose. I had an entire conversation with a sheriff attempting to serve a warrant from half way up my drive. It's almost as if they know there are armed nuts in the woods and that no one is going to come and save them if they start shit, or something.
