#4 From a user interface engineering viewpoint, making the taser similar to the standard firearm in use makes sense from a body mechanics/usability perpective. The downside is painfully obvious.

#8 for what his mother said was air fresheners dangling from his rear-view mirror

I have not seen the video, but excuse me if I've heard something like this before.

My question would be what led to the decision of the officer to feel the need to draw and fire in such a timeline that the difference between the two went unnoticed.

'Senior' would suggest the training and experience to not panic (yes, DM, where they make shit up to stir the beans is accounted for, rookie should be practiced and concentrated enough to know which hip to draw from).

My gut tells me preferential hiring practices and impractical training sessions. Will defer until I've come across video, if available yet.

#9 The suspect drove away after being shot. Odds are he would have also driven away after being tased. At that point the car is to be considered a deadly weapon in the hands of a dangerous criminal. Look at it that way and you can see that she performed a public service because this is one less bad guy running loose to commit even more crimes.

When suspects resist arrest, violence ensues. Even so, police are trained and expected to make the arrest without any injuries or deaths but that's not always a realistic expectation. Violence is chaotic, unpredictable and often results in tragedy. The moral of the story should be, Do Not Resist Arrest. But instead, journalistspropagandists and politicians blame the police so we can expect more riots and lawlessness.
