I had no problem with the shooter getting dead. What I do have a very big problem with is when any policing agency decides to become judge, jury and executioner. The robot bomb thing is just wrong.
Since a police sniper would've put this guy down eventually, I don't see how the robot made things worse. And as far as the police acting autonomously in these matters, well, you can bet that the command post was linked with the mayor and possibly Greg Abbott as well. That's what those big mobile rigs with all the telecom equipment are for.
Bullshit.
This thug killed 5 officers and wounded about 6 more. He was given a chance to come out for hours and didn’t take it. How many lives are you willing to sacrifice to save this dirtbag?
Get an effing clue. Seriously.
