Time for the cops to take off the kid gloves. Behaving like morons with cops will only get one killed. When they ask (OK, demand) for one to do something, DO IT! If there is anything untoward during the stop, address it AFTERWARDS. Live to complain another day and not become a martyr. How hard is it to understand this basic concept?

While I agree complying with instructions is not only the best and safest idea, the idea that failure to immediately comply with instructions will lead to your execution is a huge problem to me. Force escalation has gotten not just out of control, but beyond that. Any citizen who tried to pull 'standard police policies' in defending themselves will go to jail and most likely end up with a significant prison sentence. We do NOT have laws that only apply to one class of citizen - they apply to all.

Citizens go to jail, your name and picture immediately released to the press following your arrest; police get a paid vacation, they won't choose to release the name of the officer at this time (or maybe ever), investigators are looking into the situation. This, to me, is a significant problem that must be addressed. That is a badge, not a wholesale license to kill.

“A robot bomb took him down. I hadn’t heard of these, but what a resource for cops to have!”

Simple to construct, control and explode.

Not going to be so enthusiastic about those when Hillary starts sending them into folks’ living rooms when the big gun grab starts.

“I was shocked at the number of people on Twitter mourning this guy.”

We have had some concerned trolls on FR concerned about using a drone/robot to take this POS out!

Anybody else wonder how many days in the past year or past 7 1/2 years the flag of the United States of America has been at half staff?

Whatever the count is, it seems representative of the sad condition of the United States of America under the leadership or lack thereof of our current President.

Thank you! Did you see the pic of the sniper on the ground and there is a caption reading that BPPO has ‘spies’ inside our branches of gov.

This may be completely erroneous but CNBC is reporting that the NYT reports that there was only one gunman.

Has it been confirmed there was more than one shooter? If so, how many? And if so, why hasn’t information been released on the other shooters?

Apparently Prof. Griff is a Pro Islam Black Radical.

Johnson was definitely influenced by Islam.

How many more have been influenced by this minister/professor of Hate Whitey?

Obama, Moosella, Holder, Lynch and the Muslim Brotherhood Kitchen cabinet of Obama to name a few.

Time was on the side of the cops. Them not waiting him out was a major mistake.

How much time are you going to give a suspect who has an elevated platform and a very defensible position?

Before long 0bama, Lynch et al, will want to negotiate a “Peace Treaty” with these Black Islamic Radicals.

Thereby giving their cause legitimacy.

I guess you have to be able to trust the entities who have access to them. I think the police were right in this case.

Indeed, ANYTHING in Hitlery’s control is dangerous. She needs to be securely and safely [for all people’s sakes] behind bars!
