From what I saw a few days ago...the guy wasnt resisting during the prior seconds of him getting shot. He was on his belly.

And the cop pulled the wrong weapon? BS.

This is a fucked up event. I go to that Bart station too

I know the officer involved in this shooting. He just turned 27 on Monday and had his first kid on Sunday. I haven't been able to talk to him personally, but I can't imagine what he is going through. They even have witnesses that said the cops were saying, "Stop resisting or you will get tazered".

I know, I can totally see where both sides are coming from in this case. I can't imagine how either family is feeling right now.

Yeah, there's no fucking way that is possible...not at all.
