Have you been shot at? I have. Have you ever been stabbed? I have. I have seen teenagers kill a lot of good men without hesitation or reservation, and with out any remorse. This cop, good or bad, was faced with a life or death situation, and he handled it a lot better than I would have. Also, he is alive to face the consequences of his actions. If I am on the jury I will give the cop the benefit of the doubt. The woman should have submitted to the arrest, then none of this would have happened. Send her to jail for a long time.
“Have you been shot at? I have. Have you ever been stabbed? I have. I have seen teenagers kill a lot of good men without hesitation or reservation, and with out any remorse.”
Look at the video. None of those kids were doing anything like that they were jawing at the cop.
The two he pulled the gun on were already backing away from him when he pulled the gun.
If he;s that damned panicked by a bunch of highschoolers when he has backup right there then he’s too damn scared to have that job.
But I don’t think he was scared I think he was Pissed. He lost his temper and made the situation worse.
He was probably embarrassed from falling on his butt when he started chasing the first kid.
This wasn’t about him being afraid for his life. It’s about him being Barney Fife.
“The woman should have submitted to the arrest, then none of this would have happened. Send her to jail for a long time.”
The “woman” was 14 years old and was released to her parents without any charges being filed.
The cop screwed up.
