Maybe it a modern thing, but I have police in my family, many of my friends growing up had cop fathers, and it was always civilians first. That was the job. It seems today they place themselves above that, but it is supposed to be about you being about something greater than yourself. Pretty sure that went out the window when they became targeted by rioters, shooting and shown 0 respect by the people who need them most. I for one am happy to tell the cops that they can shoot as many asshats with guns pointed anywhere near them as they want. I will never fault anyone for going into self-preservation mode (when it is warranted) and ensuring they go home to their family. You don't die because some dipshit with a gun has an attitude, there is no greater good in that. Putting yourself at risk by trying to reason with a stranger is stupid. I don't think 40k/year changes that.

I don't blame these cops for doing what they need to do. But at the same time, I have to think the technology is there to be able to taze the dog shit out of someone instead of putting holes in them?
Do the tazers not work well? I am legit asking, I have no clue.

Tazers work great in certain situations, but they are man made mechanisms that miss, malfunction, and have difficulty penetrating certain clothing. If an officer finds themselves in what they view as a potentially life threatening situation they aren't going to pull out their tazer.

I am legit asking, I have no clue. sober/not full blown insane....yep. hammered drunk and raging....nope. i was tazed with zero effect , hit me a second time while already cuffed, that one did the trick. so my final answer is no, considering most violent perps are, in some way, not of rational mind.

Because our other man made mechanisms obviously don't miss and don't have problems penetrating clothing. Just feel we could do more in regards to this.

Well at least this ugly story has a halfway happy ending: the naked guy got PAID, although not enough in my opinion.
But those cops -- all of them -- should have been fired, and the dog's handler should have been criminally charged.
It's important to remember that these outrageous incidents ARE few and far between, BUT THEY SHOULD BE AGGRESSIVELY PROSECUTED whenever they happen. Those cops are no better than Nazi storm troopers.

Letting a dog continue to chew on the shredded leg muscle of a dude with 4 police on his back and his hands cuffed is one of the more disgusting things I've ever seen. That was horror movie type gore.

If there had been facebook livestream in the 1960's, the South would be peaceful and clean today

Here's some more video of super racist cops shooting and killing and unarmed, unaggressive black man and then letting him die face down in his own blood, handcuffed for some fucking reason, no cpr, no nothing, no weapons found, cops are heroes though. Oh shit, just realized the dude is white and nobody gives a fuck. It's not a race issue, it's a power issue: cops have it, street folk don't, racial paranoia misdiagnoses yet another social issue. There IS a serious issue with police conduct, training, accountability, and application . . . and it has nothing to do with your race baiting fetish, assholes. White people are getting gunned down at a rate of 500/year, double what you're getting, and they are not committing double the crimes. thefreethoughtproject.com/graphic-body-cam-footage-shows-killer-cop-murders-innocent-unarmed-man/
