Drunk, waving a gun, and I assume to be hard of hearing (re: noise complaint) are a deadly combination when a cop is shouting “put down that gun”. What could go wrong!

Well, that’s one way to look at it. Here’s another. He was suspected of no felony. Let that sink in. He was suspected of no felony.
And he was drinking while on his own property. Which is his right in a free country. And he was in possession of a gun while on his own property. Which is also his right in a free country.
Nevertheless, he was shot down - on his own property - like a dog. Something that could easily happen to you or me. Cops come to your house and you happen to be holding a gun, or a cell phone, or a TV remote. You very well could be shot down like a dog.
But the cops “felt threatened”. So it’s all good. It’s your fault because you - on your own property - were holding a gun, or a cell phone, or a TV remote.
