It dont matter if he was fired. $100 says he's workin in the next county😉

[sardonumspa]

Charges are sticking. To help prevent her from suing.

U can tell officer snuffleupagus was picked on in highschool & became a cop just to abuse his power.

[iamergoproxy]

How do you go from giving a command to shooting without allowing people time to follow said command? If he stayed on the force he would be bound to kill someone

[angelgjr]

Everybody knows Gwinnett PD doesn’t practice de escalation techniques. He only got fired because the video went viral.

[thisbushnell]

He's been itching to tase somebody, anybody. Took the opening.

Cop is quick draw Mcgraw! "Get on the ground, taser, taser...BAM!" Girl didn't have time to even drop to her knees! He needed to be fired, so good!

[lunakat]

What a joke. They left most of the video out.

[michaelpease]

“The charges will stick” How and the officer was fired. No way this goes to trial

[kingbuck]

I'm black, and I'm like what the heck was he supposed to do after he asked her a couple of times to follow instructions?

First time I've heard an officer of the law use the term "de-escalation technique" in a sentence when speaking with the media. The police of the US are tone deaf to this technique.

If I had a nose like that I'd be mad at the world too lol

[lleavell]

Typical overly aggressive officer who thinks people are his peons to do whatever he wishes.

1:17 Hey it's Screech from Saved by the Bell

[kepler]

and the Chief used his officer as a pawn to keep his job. way to have their back Chief.

[papichulo]

He didn't give her time to get on the ground he just tazed fast

[samernammari]

Why not show the whole video from the body cam? That way, you can make the case that he didn't use proper de-escalation techniques.

[cromwellsghost]

So the charges stick, and yet he loses his job. I’m confused.
If he’s ramped it up I get it. But see officers on cameras beating the stuffing out of folks and get a 2 week suspension 🤔

[henrylloyd]

That's what he does to all women he just got caught this time people need to start getting those tyrants addresses

[charlesparks]

How you get tased for not following police commands when you are not under arrest??
