Aren't police in the 21st century also trained in several non-lethal deterrents? Six shots to an unarmed man is excessive. While I don't know the whole story of what happened (stories are conflicting and the physical evidence that I've read hasn't been 100% sussed out as to what was what), I think it's clear that this guy shouldn't be an officer anymore. If he couldn't of used a taser or pepper spray or even just waited for back-up, his judgement seems to be in question.
