According to what I read earlier, the whole thing took 10-15 seconds or less, so:

1) They rolled up: 5 to8 seconds; 5 to 8 total.
2) They opened the car doors, and jumped out: 2 to 5 seconds; 7 to 13 total.
3) They took up positions to fire while drawing, aiming and shouting commands: 2 to 3 seconds; 9 to 16 total.
4) They wait for the 13 year old to respond and open fire: -1 to 1 seconds.

The danger of hyper-militarizing the police is that they begin to hyper-militarize their response to situations-even when it's not called for.

You are right, but this Sheriff has firearms experience and if he pegged the 'perps' weapon instantly to be an AK47 the threat is escalated 10-fold over a BB gun.

All right, all right.. I don't know what to think.

According to this article it was a police Drive-By shooting. By the time the car came to a rest the target was down.
