Me too.
However, if I accused the guy of attempted murder, and it was found that the gun wasn't loaded, how would that stand up in court?
Since we've agreed that the cops couldn't read minds, how should they react to the threat of the loaded gun?
Would I still get to speculate in court WITHOUT REBUTTAL that the guy "could have shot through his holster"
We've got one of those 20/20 hindsight things going on here.
Yes - the 20/20 hindsight thing where Officer Mosher said at the inquest that he owns the same type of holster, and the gun could be “easily fired” while in its holster.
Without being challenged.
BTW - I'm still waiting for you to point out the post where "Some here claim that if no round was chambered, the cops should have known that before they fired."...
