The following was on one of the news networks.
“The man who made the widely seen cellphone video of the shooting, 22-year-old Raysean White, said he saw Blake scuffling with three officers and heard them yell, “Drop the knife! Drop the knife!” before gunfire erupted. He said he didn’t see a knife in Blake’s hands.
The Kenosha police union said Blake had the knife and refused orders to drop it. Blake fought with police, including putting one officer in a headlock, the union said. Police twice used a Taser, which did not stop Blake.”
Question, if the facts are as this report, what other options did the police have at the time?
Taser, already deployed and did not seem to work.
So what now? allow the suspect who is armed with a knife to get into the car with the children?
Are the cops only to use deadly force if their own lives are in immediate danger?
