Well, I have problems with your rebuttal.
1 - I’ve never heard of anyone who carried a 1911 with the hammer down on a live round, and then planned on shooting it by fanning the hammer. Everything I’ve read said there are two ways to safely carry a 1911 - cocked and locked, or hammer down on an empty chamber.
I’ll post your technique on some gun forums to see if anyone else has heard or practiced that method. And if Scott was planning on it, then the testimony should have mentioned that there was a round int he chamber and that Scott might have been hoping to fan the hammer.
But frankly, I think your technique sounds like a real reach in an attempt to clear the name of a cop who admits he didn’t know the holster was wrapped around the gun. And the idea that someone pulls the holster with the gun so he can fan the hammer and blow off the holster while shooting it is nothing less than bizarre!
Also, before drawing (according to the testimony of Mosher), Scott announced he had a gun. Is that consistent with someone trying to outdraw and shoot the cops - to warn them?
2 - As I pointed out in my post, it seems the testimony does not support Scott being totally surrounded. If he was, it indicates gross stupidity on the part of the cops. And no one is claiming the other two cops dropped to the ground before firing. To pretend they did is to LIE.
I don’t know what your agenda is, but the truth isn’t part of it.
Lots more testimony (both sides, often conflicting the way normal witness testimony does) here:

Only the police person who made the upward shot needed to be 'dropped to the ground. You scum come on FR and play these word games all the time. You just get caught when someone challenges you because all you know how to do is deceive readers with your fabrications. Again, with more intensity, get stuffed you lying sack of acorns.
In typical lying democrat posing as a consewrvative style, tou accuse others of what you are trying to do. You're a lying deceitful poseur at FR who has been playing these word games on many threads (the birther threads come to mind first), all the time pretending to be something you're not.
As to floating something on a gun thread, yeah, somehow I trust you'll frame your deceit ins uch a way that unsuspecting rersponders will substantiate your deceits without realizing it. but just pick up a Kimber Carry, shove it into a belt-clip holster with a round chambered, then pull the hammer back and let it go before reaching 'cocked'. Then pick the holster up off the ground and take the mag out of the weapon in your hand, unless you want to fire the rest of the rounds ... and jack the slide back, fool, cause there's a round chambered and the hammer is cocked after you do the trick. Your lack of knowledge reveals a lot about you, liar.
