What I think you saw was the shadow of his hand against the fence.
I agree...the reason I showed it is...in the adrenaline-filled heat of the moment...that cop probably was focused on looking at the hands of the criminal as they came around and might have misinterpreted that as a gun instead of a shadow in what, the half second or less he saw it?
I can’t help being angry that this is what we have come to.
We are being encouraged by these vocal and aggressive portions of society to give all the benefit of the doubt to this now dead criminal, and none to someone tasked with upholding the law on our behalf.
