I used to live in Pinellas, what a great place to grow up as a kid. I follow the "keep one friend around who is slower than you" rule and I survived that hell hole.
I agree if he reached for the gun then he got what he was asking for....but why shoot him after he was tased?
He was certainly in the wrong but being tased and then shot by two people afterward is a little excessive.
