    In all likelihood he probably suffered from mental health issues, or an addiction which is why he was homeless in the first place. Clearly making rational decisions would be a challenge for someone in that mental state. How 5-6 officers couldn't prevent the situation from escalating shows that they handled him exactly as they were trained, but I'm sure there will be a huge effort to punish the individual cops. All the while some new rookie cop is being training to take down a person exactly as they've done.

    • 5 cops with a guy with only 4 limbs, I don't know if fist punching is good training to try to subdue a person.yurimon
    • Even if he rationalized the decision it wouldn't mean that the outcome would be acceptable.cannonball1978
