First and foremost, the video is awful. And while I had no issues with what happened BEFORE that point, what they did once he was restrained was not right.

In this video, you can clearly see the dude wasn't cooperating. You can say 'cops gang up on him 4 on 1 blah blah blah' but the fact is, he was being confrontational when he didn't have to be. I have no problem with the way he was treated before he was placed in the chair.

Cops will be going to jail for manslaughter, as they should be. Case closed.

On a slightly related note...

I did notice this though, that I thought was funny from your link in the OP.


On New Year's Day 2015, Matthew Ajibade was arrested after a mental health crisis. Instead of being taken to a hospital, Ajibade, who was otherwise in perfect physical condition, was taken to jail—against his family's wishes.

Mental health crisis is not a crime. It would dampen the spirit of the piece if you actually stated what he was arrested for. He was arrested for assaulting (punching) his girlfriend and then assaulting an officer by (punching) breaking his nose. He was taken to jail because he assaulted two people. I bet you my family wouldnt want me to go to jail either. :oldlol: Idiots, that's not how the law works.

Doesn't call for a death sentence, obviously, but just wanted to point out the slanted reporting.

3 counts of manslaughter for all involved. Put them away for life, they deserve it.

I watched the video and it didn't really show anything. Is there a longer version that shows the actual tasing?
