Right I did not see the suspect “lung” at the officer. I saw the suspect exit the vehicle, with hands partially raised and was almost immediately shot by both officers.

Did the suspect have another weapon? I have no idea.

But there was no lunging from my perspective.

BTW, you might want to relax as I never said one way or another here what my opinion of the shoot was.

I am only observing the video and listening to the audio. You seem really excited about this. Have a beer maybe.

So did I. He forced the door open and jumped to his feet towards the officer. Plain as day.

Neither did the cop.

You can't even keep a text conversation straight. Soooo....

So your posting has no intended point at all!?! Sounds about right.

You seem really excited about this.

More of your slipshod observational skills on display.

Perhaps some quibbling over wording is going on. What I saw was that the passenger VERY suddenly and with great speed opened the door and “sprung” (I think that is an apt word to describe his exit) out and up. I’d like to be able to run this in slow motion with a “split second” clock showing to gauge just how quick this sudden action was. If I was in the cop’s situation, I very well might have fired also.
