Has anyone tried to look at this from the police officers perspective? YES maybe it should not have taken 6 of them to detain him...but he was coming at them, swinging at them, saying racial slurs, would not stay down, was grabbing the night stick etc.. Were they supposed to let the suspect beat them up?? I'm sorry if you swing on a police officer...you got whats coming to you...black, white, red, whatever. Yea the guy shouldn't have died...but he should ahve thought about his health before he decided to take a swing at a cop, take drugs with an enlarged heart and indulge in Burgers from White Castle at 350+pounds.
What would you have done in the situation if a suspect would not stay down and was coming at you? The officers DID pepper spray him...they continuously said "put your hands behind your back"Why do we always jump to the defense of someone who's in the wrong in the first place??
I just don't get it
