[QUOTE=MILKE;41650275]I dont see why they didn't taze him instead of dropping him. It's not like he was charging at the cops or something. He was resisting arrest and happend to carry a knife[/QUOTE]
Because as another video shown in this sub-forum, the one where the guy gets "tazed" and doesn't feel anything, a tazer can not work as intended if their clothing is thick enough, one contact snags in their clothing, range on tazers aren't that great and predictable plus there is so many other ways the situation can go wrong.
I'm reminded of this old incident:

[QUOTE=aydin690;41646223]Refer to my amazingly artistic ms paint picture. They could have tried less lethal weapons but instead they chose to straight up execute him on the spot.[/QUOTE]
I'm loving how you're drawing up all these kinds of maneuvers that they could have pulled even though you weren't there

hahaha my favorite part is when he gets shot in the balls
Something similar happend last years on my tiny city, someone was depressed and 2 cops came at his appartment, the dude was crying and was holding a knife, he refused to drop the knife, so the cops shot him 2 time on the chest and 1 time on the heads. One of my friend now live in this appartment, there is still bullet hole on the wall.
The asshole got transfered in the US with a new identity, people wanted his death.

this is the one i think you're talking about
also warning, its fucking gruesome, the screams man[/QUOTE]
God that's awful, especially when hes screaming after being shot and you hear his screams stop after the guy comes back and shoots him close range.
[QUOTE=angelangel;41648095]should have gone with the 10 officers with riot shields approach i.e. this video

lets not post videos like this anymore
Why not just tase him to begin with? This is unnecessary force big time.
I imagine if these were American police doing exactly the same thing this thread would have gone very differently.
Maybe he couldn't drop it

He was slashing at someone with a machete and he lived. He's lucky he doesn't live in a country where police are armed honestly.

Haha and people said the police could have used bean bags.
Bean bags don't do shit

You mean, way worse, right?

Because theres a good chance it wont work, and if it doesnt, he still has a knife.

Though you would think they would just try it out since there's a lot of cops covering each other.
Well giving them the benefit of the doubt,they might just not want an angry man with a knife running around and them having to frantically shoot at him which may cause other people to get hit in the heat of the moment
Get a clue, idiot, he was high and attacked them (with a knife). Or did you get your info from that shitty youtube video that was taken by a cell phone from 50 feet away. Armchair law enforcers are hilarious.
[QUOTE=Apache249;41643808]Why was the knife out to begin with? First impression is that he was up to no good.[/QUOTE]
He started making trouble in the neighborhood.

They might have on a 17 year old boy.
Who knows though, as most people have said, he should have dropped the knife when instructed, perhaps that doesn't justify taking his life, but I wouldn't take the risk of trying to restrain him either.

Did he live?
[QUOTE=OrkO;41643677]even if all 9 shots hit him, he mightn't necessarily die immediately, and could still, in theory (however unlikely), pose a threat enough to require a tasing.[/QUOTE]
This is the biggest heap of bullshit I have ever read and the fact that this gets 24 agrees makes me sick. What the fuck is wrong with you Facepunch?
[QUOTE=ultra_bright;42039976]Did he live?[/QUOTE]
No, he was shot multiple times and kill by a shot to the head. The attacker was shot in the stomach and lived, he is still waiting to be executed for the murder of Deputy Kyle Dinkheller which he committed in 1998.

People can overcome pretty much anything given the right circumstance.

Got shot, stabbed, and hit by shrapnel and still continued to fight, move, and do his job.

That's why cops (and everybody trained to use a gun_) is trained to shoot to kill, not shoot to maim. Shooting to maim is impractical and nearly impossible considering all the factors working against you, like limbs being small moving targets, high chance of hitting a major artery, missing because you're not shooting at a clear target, etc etc.
Most people aren't going to survive getting shot 2 times in the torso, but somebody [I]MIGHT.[/I] It's not worth risking one's life based on a hunch. You have to be 100% sure.
