Yes, lets tell cops to pause their trigger fingers in every situation and forget about protecting their life (
which by the way is usually there to provide financial support for their families, not that you care you are in support of protecting criminals rather than police officers) due to people acting stupid.
I'd rather have shady criminals killed than officers on duty.
There is a line where abuse of force is crossed. And this is not one of those times. If a person ignores what the cops are telling them, they run from them, they go into a dark corner of a house and you whip their hand around from behind their back I HOPE the cop shoots them between the eyes dead. When people pull garbage like that and force the cop to react on life or death instinct then they absolutely deserve what they get.
Afterall if I have 5 officers surrounding me with guns pointing at my grill... my natural reaction is to make fast threatening movements.
Natural movements to you, I guess. I'd rather take very slow and calculated movements while telling the officers what I'm doing and that I'm complying with their wishes. I guess that's just too hard of a concept for some people to realize. (
i.e. those that whip out their wallet in front of police who have guns pointed at them)
