The officer tried first to subdue the man with a Taser stun gun but it had no effect.

Was the taser not in working order or something? I can't imagine anyone could not be subdued by tens of thousands of volts of electricity.

A shot to the leg or shoulder wasn't possible?

Why shoot to kill when the guy's only carrying a wood board?

Sheesh, a guy wielding a 2x4 (it appears to be) is now considered so dangerous as to warrant using deadly force?

Give me a break!!!

What kind of LEO are we producing today that they cannot disarm someone like that???

Moral of the story - Don’t go to a gun fight with a piece of wood. You’ll lose.

When a man’s got wood, he feels powerful.

There are various reasons a taser wouldn't have an effect... the most common is drugs. I have seen some mountain-sized men brought to their knees and made to cry like a baby with one.

The alternative is that the Taser wasn't functioning.

It’s time to ban 2 X 4s!

But then...if we ban 2 X 4s, only outlaws will have 2 x 4s!

"(Boy Named Sue)"

"Son, this world is rough
and if a man's gonna make it
he's got to be tough
and I knew I wouldn't be there to help you along,

So I give you that name and I said goodbye
and I knew you'd either have to get tough or die,
and it's that name that helped to make you strong..."

With apologies to Johnny Cash.
