who said he should 'do nothing' ? pursuing an overweight 50 year old 'running' at about 2mph shouldn't be that difficult.
he was wanted for not paying child support, not a violent felony.

Getting pulled over for a 3rd brake light being out. Great excuse for a 'profile' stop.
Especially since SC doesn't have safety inspections.

The news is putting a racial spin to this story, as you see it's being bought.

Yeah I know. That's why I facepalmed.

This is the dash cam of the stop. I don't know about anyone else, but I wouldn't be able to see the driver enough to profile.

That's bad, but not as bad as what would have happened to him about 130 years ago.

Boy no kidding. Dont get me wrong he deserved it, how dare anyone take something that you didn't earn. I have a major hatred (let's just cut to the chase im a HATER!!)towards thieves. They steal stuff, cop's steel lives, both living, and the one's they kill.

There are bad eggs everywhere you go.

Just keep in mind people like this are the exception, not the norm.

Not sure about that. There will still be many stupid people.

Agreed. Problem is you usually only hear about the exceptions.

What I am saying is this situation could have been AVOIDED if the person had not RUN. In what society is it permissable to RUN from the LAW? Their are no justifications. If you are wanted for child support, man up and take care of it.

Their are so MANY ways this situation could have been avoided.
- victim takes care of child support
- victim doesn't run
- cop doesnt shoot the victim in the back

The first 2 were in the victims control and because he CHOSE poorly gave an opportunity for a 3rd choice that is no longer in his control and the victim is now deceased.
Lol.... Please.... No way to say it . The Cop probably shot him because of the person color . Which is the big problem in this world.
