From your link:

‘A little food for thought: the guy is on his own property, and he was even inside his own house when they shot him. They also did not know for sure that nobody else came into the garage after he shut the door, so they could have shot one of the kids for all they know. It seems rash to me, and then to award them $.04 when the man of the family (despite how bad) was killed is pretty sad. I have a huge issue with cops coming on your property and shooting you if you are not directly threatening them. If you say well, they knew he had a gun so they shot through the door. Think about that. So if a cop comes to your house for a call and they know you have a gun (registered weapon) can they then just shoot through the front door or a window because they knew you had a gun??? I am really tired of cops getting to kill people on their own property without any real consequences. Apparently a jury thought otherwise.’

They must have taken Biden’s idea to shoot through the door.

And when they found him, dead, his gun was in his back pocket...So he apparently was not aware of the dyer consequences that were about to be foisted upon him and the gun possibly never left his pocket to begin with...
