Yeah, Hammond shouldn't have tried to run. I agree with you there, Six.
But, cops shouldn't shoot people when they try and run from being busted for non-violent offenses, aren't armed, and the cops have their damned contact information. That's what happened to Walter Scott, on foot, over an effin' broken tail light in the OP and what happened to Zachary Hammond, behind the wheel, over a dime-bag weed deal. In both cases, the cops lied and said their lives were in danger when they decided to pull the trigger.
That shit absolutely should not happen.
