I don't understand why more cops, if they are going to shoot, don't shoot to disable.
That is what tasers are for.
So even if this lady thought he was reaching into the car to grab a weapon, shoot him in the leg. He'd then fall on the ground, negating any chance to grab the weapon and he'd still be alive today.
A firearm is only to be used when the officer reasonably fears that their life is in danger.
He was tasered...didn't do anything.
I believe he was shot while being tased.
Am I incorrect?

I think that is correct...teaser wasn't affecting him.

This murder of the civilian motorist by police occurred on Sept 16th.. over 5 days ago. Why no riots in Tulsa, immediately afterward? Too few African Americans there?

Terence Crutcher, whose shooting by a police officer in Tulsa, Oklahoma, was captured on camera, had the drug known as PCP in his system during the incident, according to a toxicology report released Tuesday.
The case drew national attention after police released videos showing Crutcher walking on the road with his arms in the air before the shooting.
Tulsa police Officer Betty Shelby has pleaded not guilty to felony manslaughter in connection with the shooting.
