As I mentioned in the other post http://sajha.com/sajha/html/index.cfm?threadid=109949 , this saga is generally perceived at the micro race level whereas it encompasses a broader problem of excessive use of force by police in general.
It is unlikely that someone who is unarmed and has been shot 4 times in the leg keeps advancing and causes so much threat that the only resort is to shoot him in the head to kill him.
This kind of excessive use for force has been prevalent in an increasing number of cases and a federal law need to be considered on how to prevent such excessive use of force. The police, who are meant to protect the citizens cannot be so trigger happy so as to kill the citizens at the slightest offense.
