I watched the video several times.
Either that weapon has the most hair trigger ever or the police department just hires anyone with a body temp of 98.6F

Was the guy aiming a weapon at the cop? Enquiring minds want to know.

Why the hell are they charging the cop when anyone with a cellphone and no common sense knows this was a case of “gun violence” and the gun was the one who caused this shootin’.

Either that weapon has the most hair trigger ever or the police department just hires anyone with a body temp of 98.6F Lots of police departments hire people like that. Are there good cops out there? Yes. Are there some bad cops out there? ABSOLUTELY. Back the blue, till it happens to you. It they don’t immediately shoot you, it’s best to take the 5th.

The fact that the police department totally changed their story as soon as the video was released sure doesn’t help their case.

Failure to instantly obey a commend is an instant death sentence. Raising your hands too fast while obeying commands is an instant death sentence.

Not former. More honest and accurate to say then-officer as he didn’t do this after leaving the department.

Every police shooting investigation should include the question “what efforts were made to de-escalate the situation”?

Training needs to be to a state-wide or nation-wide standard.
Perhaps:
driver hands on top of steering wheel
front passenger hands on dashboard

I have not watched the video but the still picture shows the ex-cop standing in front of the vehicle--a very foolish position tactically.
If the vehicle were not in "park" and shut off it could quickly become a multi-ton weapon.

The police were just doing their job, following standard procedure. There is no evidence of any policeman violating anyone's rights.
