I’m saying the cops better figure out an option to deadly force or they are the ones who will pay the piper. I’ll repeat one point. In this case they were too close and put themselves in a deadly force situation with no out and a mentally unstable individual.

If the object he drew from his pocket - to point at the police in a classic 2-handed shooting position - was a gun, the cops being 2, 5 or 10 times further away would not have put them out of deadly range. From any of those distances, the instant he drew that object from his pocket and pointed it, he became a threat that warranted nothing less than immediate deadly force.

Since the cops were responding to a 911 call, reporting a man out of control and behaving erratically but not reporting him armed, it was only normal police procedure to try to contain the guy, rather than just observing from some distant cover and send for backup.

The dangerous job of real cops, the lawlessness of many areas of this country, and the anti-American & Anti-White radicals agitators hellbent on using these shootings, to incite violence and undermine law and order, make discussions of these incidences no place for unthoughtful armchair second guessing.
