Oakland.


<span style="color: #FF0000"><span style="font-family: 'Courier New'">Others are insisting that Mehserle meant to pull out his (less fatal) Taser, but this theory has since been discredited. Firstly, a Sig-Sauer handgun weighs three times what a Taser weighs, and the shape is completely distinct, and another expert noticed in the tape that the officer had previously withdrawn his Taser, located for safety reasons on the other side of his belt. In other words, he knew he was going for the gun. Hence the claim of accidental discharge, but this too raises a serious question of plausibility: when Mehserle drew his gun, Grant couldn’t see it, and so there could be no claim that it was meant to threaten the victim into passivity. In the end, if Mehserle is ever forced to give a statement, he will likely turn to the tried-and-true excuse that he “suspected” Grant had a gun in his pants.

But none of this matters, all the debate of the officer’s “intention” only serves to reinforce the fact that, while white cops are allowed to have intention, this is a quantity denied to their victims. This fact of racist double-standards is not lost on those who, realizing that there will be no “justice” in this case, have taken to the streets to demonstrate their rage at the unprovoked execution</span></span>

Re: suh stungun/taser

police are trained not to take their eyes off suspects when reaching for their side arms, anyone with fire arm training know the drill. You get trained to pull out the fire arm without looking down and if he was a rookie or under stress or tired he very likely slipped back to muscle memory and poor training and pull the wrong weapon especially if he was wearing the tazer on the secondary side or cross holstered like a blackberry. His slip up cost the young man him life. The cop clearly messed up, he even put his hand to his head after he shot the youth like oh..chit on the video. He has now left the force, the color issue and history of police brutality in this country complicates the true story.


Put a poorly trained person under enough stress and at 2am tired and running on adrenaline, I can see how it could happen
