He rightfully resisted arrest? Even if the arrest is unlawful, resisting arrest is clearly illegal.
It's a big assumption to say that they wanted him back in jail. It might be somewhat likely, but we don't know either way. We don't know the reason for his arrest.
Actually there is some nuance; most people don't know you actually do have the right to resist unlawful arrest to some extent.

Funky, hopefully Cure's lawyers can use that.
Not after he's dead, and if that's your point, go sit down in the corner with the other bootlickers.
Are the rest of his family not called Cure?
And the punishment for breaking any law is death? Or from your prior comment:
Yeah, the gun was the only option. You definitely can't just let someone run away for resisting arrest at a traffic stop. Even if you impound their now-abandoned car, they might go on a whole spree of resisting arrests or something.
In case you can't tell my tone is past sarcasm and well into disgust.
So it's ok for police to let an aggressive and violent man run loose?
