This is a lie. He was a hobo living in the middle of nowhere. They went to HIM to kick him off public land that no one uses.
Further, as the video clearly shows, he was showing no signs of attacking anyone when they first tried to tase him, then flash bang him, then shoot him, then shoot him again, then sic a dog on him while he bled out...
I posted a link to an article about the autopsy results. Which don't help the police so you sound like a complete and utter moron throwing out the "jack-boot supporter" BS. Adjust your meds, stupid.
“Having a knife, being armed, is not enough to shoot someone. Not for self-defense “Do you really mean that or are you being silly?
There's nothing silly about that. What's silly is believing the opposite. There are millions of Americans that walk around armed. That's the whole point of having a concealed carry license, and many people live in states that don't even require those.
Are you suggesting that all of those Americans should be subject to being shot by the police simply for being armed? Now that's silly.
Former Albuquerque police detective Keith Sandy and current officer Dominique Perez could face murder charges linked to the March 16 killing of mentally ill homeless man James Boyd, police spokesman Tanner Tixier said.

I went to the referenced article and the above sentence was gone. It’s hard to find any reliable source that establishes Boyd was mentally ill by medical standards.
