The guy was going back to his vehicle. There is a blood-curdling dash-cam video of that happening in another older incident and the guy pulls out a carbine and kills the cop. People act like the guy wasn't doing anything wrong. If he would have remained in place and followed the direction of the cops, he' still be alive.

Did the cop do a bad shoot? That's what trials are for. But IMO the dude's actions gave her ample reason to be jacked up. And bad things can happen when someone pointing a gun gets jacked up.

Thanks for the mention of that other incident.

I agree with your take on this.

I don’t understand the thinking behind non-compliance in these situations.

If it were me and a weapon was out I would be doing exactly what the officer had ordered me to do.

Once you demonstrate you won’t the officer does get jacked up. They think you’re planning something sinister. Why wouldn’t they.

He wasn't doing anything wrong. And it proved fatal.
