So I guess letting thuggish teens sneak up behind you and reach into their back pockets.. well i guess he shoulda let em shoot him.

1. I didn’t see any “thuggish teens” sneaking up behind him. Agitated, sure. Thuggish? Didn’t see any indication of that.

2. Watch the full video, and compare this officer’s conduct to the conduct of every other officer on the scene. All of the other officers in the video look professional, are calmly (but authoritatively) speaking with people, and appear to be trying to figure out what is going on and to de-escalate the situation. This guy was doing none of those things. Instead, he was running around, shouting orders, and generally re-escalating the environment.

Kind of hard to do when the teens were unarmed. Still, a lot of people around here seem disappointed that he didn't shoot the kids when he had the chance.
