Also, will someone please put out a PSA explaining landscape orientation. Every single video on worldstarhiphop is in crappy portrait mode.
What you cannot tell from the video is that the suspect, while yelling to kill him and advancing on officers has a knife in his hand. This was a good shoot, why would you taser a man within 20 feet advancing on you with an edged weapon?
Before crucifying the officers involved, lets look into the facts of the shoot.
That is crazy.....now that is a trigger happy mofo. I wouldnt blame people for being outraged over this. Them cops need tasers or balls one.....I don't know how 2 of them couldn't subdue that guy without shooting him......and 8-10 times, come on. Whatever happened to slapjacks, batons, lead knuckle gloves and a tough guy as a cop.

When dealing with people ready to kill you every day you don't take unnecessary risks. Police are allowed to defend themselves too.I think men are not made like they use to be......everyone ready to shoot someone and afraid of taking a beating. It's like we are afraid to fight now days. I remember my old man whipping 3 guys one night....they were armed with tire iron and a pipe wrench, my dad beat everyone of their behinds, broke ones jaw......sure he could have just shot them but that wouldnt be near as much fun. Maybe it's how I was raised....
I guess I just don't understand. These cops shot 8-10 times with people standing around......tell me they couldn't have easily killed an innocent person. If I discharged a weapon like that, I would be charged.

I think I found some video of CHCRandy instructing a class on handling this situation:
