I saw the post he was commenting on and it is not in the same context as what you are saying.

“sneeze and I’ll blow your s#$% away” is what the supposed cop stated. That sounds like someone who shouldn’t have a gun let alone a badge.

The loon in this case didn’t decline any commands so use of deadly force would be murder.

The point is, if he HAD refused commands while holding a weapon, then deadly force would be authorized. Real life does not demand that an officer wait until a weapon is pointed in his direction before he can use deadly force.

If a suspect is holding a weapon and does not comply with commands, (IE: does anything other than what they are told) then deadly force would be permissible and expected. It wouldn't matter if the suspect were legally armed or not.
