I've seen it, have you?

Obviously not, since there is no mention of the word "serve".

Yeah right!

As long as that 'creating a safe environment for all' involves shooting something. Dogs, handicapped people, wheelchair bound double amputees or revenue generating

Probably not, when cops have these. Who are protected by these by the way?

I'm still lost on how a guy who operates a wheelchair with his one good arm and effectively corner and threaten someone. That singular arm either moves the chair, or waves the pen defiantly.

I'm of the opinion that a propoerly administered front kick/face-stomp would have been quite effective.

Hey maybe he had a electric chair and one of those joystick things.

That's true. He may have been about to go up up down down left right left right on that cops ass.

Would that be a Streetfighter allyoucan?

At any rate the cop would have had to kill him another 29 times.
