Yeah, that’s exactly what I am getting at. We think we are seeing something that is obvious, but in reality it was something else.
The reason I think that there may be some possibility that moving the gun was legit is because he did it right in front of the second officer that arrived. He did make any attempt at all to disguise or hide the dropping of the taser there, so I am thinking that it is possible that too much is being made of that particular action.
That being said, I could be right, I could be wrong, I just don’t know, and I still state that I can see no reason in that video for the officer to shoot the man. I am just trying to understand why he moved that taser.
supposed to be didn’t* make any attmept...
I noticed the same thing. My initial thought was that the officer must be really bold. He didn't seem to care that the other officer was right there. But your theory seems more plausible.
He still might've planted it, and maybe he was just bold about it. Whatever the case, we'll find out more soon enough.
