(42,649 posts)Yes, even non-citizens.
But in this particular case, the suspect was stationary and surrounded. Unlike Garner, where from my reading the suspect was fleeing. Could they have used gas or other non-lethal means in Dallas, and if so, why did they not?
They took the time to bring in a drone. Could they have used CS or other incapacitating gas while waiting?
This entire thing seems more reactive and motivated by anger. Just my reading.
As a side note, I was a union steward for over 30 years. I defended many people and still believe that everyone has rights.
And on another side note, would you also defend the decision to kill Anwar al-Awlaki and his son Abdulrahman al-Awlaki by the Obama Administration in two separate actions, or would you argue that Boumedienne applied?
