Dont do the crime if you cant do the time (in this case permanently). It was on the news last night saying he was swinging a metal stair (just the treaded part) at people and cars. Apparently he lost his job and his girlfriend within 2 weeks and was coping by doing drugs and drinking.
Call me cold hearted, but boo freaking hoo. Cops have a tough, tough, job and the last thing they need is getting a stair to the forehead. Unless you want to start getting shot, which last I checked has a higher death rate, Tasers are really the only current non-lethal method to subdue some nut job. Did he deserve to die, no clearly not. Did some of his decisions lead to his death, absolutely.
