“... now “pointing” your wallet at a police officer is grounds for the police officer to shoot you???”
Or answering your front door with a game controller in your hand. Or just being a dog.
Bang, bang, bang. Stop or I’ll shoot.
Or retrieving your cane from the truck so you can walk....
All look like hostile aggression to trained LEO.
Or shopping at Cosco...
Or doing nothing is an excuse for an officer to shoot you.
If you are in contact with an officer that wants a promotion or wants some paid time off without using his/her vacation or sick time, well to say the least, it is not going to be your day. Your day is about to go from bad to worse.
