Topic	Police Officers shoot at a running black man that has a Taser.
Shadowbird_RH 06/15/20 2:02:07 PM #77:	EvilMegas posted... Why would you wait and let your guy get shot when you could prevent it? Because you're sworn to serve and protect the person who's shooting at you, and because what he's shooting at you with does significantly less harm than what you're shooting with. It's your job to help people, to protect people. NOT to KILL people. EvilMegas posted... What if that officer dies from cardiac arrest or some random reaction? Aren't officers trained in CPR? In the unlikely event that the electrical discharge of the taser stopped an officer's heart, the other could most likely revive him after incapacitating (by any means necessary at this point) the offender. You're not taking into account the differences in weapons, nor the capacity to do harm, nor the likelihood to which such harm is reversible. --- Fail, and we all face a tyrannical age of pizza the likes of which sentient life has never known. - Sun'barac, Xenoblade Chronicles X <cite>Shadowbird_RH posted [p:940710418] in Police Off...
