Couldn’t he shoot him? I was at the park fishing a couple of years ago, and some nonsense with a homeless guy escalated. Some dude started yelling “Shoot him!” and some idiot did.

Strange. All the guy had to do was just walk out of the store. Fighting with the police is not too good an idea.

Gonna go way, way out on a limb here, and speculate that the dude had warrants that were good enough to result in him being taken to the house.  Then he had a problem, cause, taking another big speculative leap, he might well have been a felon in possesion of the firearm, and who knows what dope he was holding for his tweaker girlfriend.  Chances are this guy has been making bad life choices for quite a few years.

He had the chance, initially, to just go with the program and scoot.  There was some small chance that the deputies wouldn't push it and let him leave just to save paperwork.  But our man here is not a rocket scientist, and his brain wasn't working too fast.  By the time he realized that he could just walk away, his big mouth had already made sure that he was going t spend the night in the hoosgow.

 The guy I can't figure is the dork who runs up and decides to involve himself in the scuffle.  The deputies were doing fine, and he just added to the confusion.

Your speculation may be right. However there was no way he was going to fight his way free. Futile stupid attempt.
