This. Surely they should have pulled up a safe distance away and

Warned him with a loudspeaker/microphone that if he did not our the alleged gun down and come out with his hands up then he would be shot.

Not driven their car at high speed to within 15 feet and shot him without warning.

        I have no idea TBH. I wouldn't like to say. (General Chat) - Brandonio, Nov 27, 20:12:33
        
        You have no idea if the vast majority of cops are bad people.... (General Chat) - usacanary, Nov 27, 20:17:16

  - I don't know how I feel about it. It looks bad, but he was walking around waving a gun (General Chat) - pants, Nov 27, 19:31:16
    - It's a kid with a toy gun ffs (n/m) (General Chat) - Ken Dodds Dads Dog, Nov 27, 19:40:35
      - must be nice to know the difference when its being pointed at you..... (General Chat) - usacanary, Nov 27, 19:43:46
        
        this case comes down to one and probably two things (General Chat) - Brandonio, Nov 27, 19:53:18
        
        spot on.......in every case the person being shot is innocent (n/m) (General Chat) - usacanary, Nov 27, 19:56:35
        
        innocent until proven guilty (General Chat) - Brandonio, Nov 27, 20:03:51
        
        innocent until proven guilty, unless you're a cop (General Chat) - CWC, Nov 27, 20:09:04
        
        nope...I think you know why I have come to that conclusion (General Chat) - Brandonio, Nov 27, 20:18:57
        
        If "cop" was a race....... this would be racist....... (n/m) (General Chat) - usacanary, Nov 27, 20:11:54
        
        it isn't though. (General Chat) - Brandonio, Nov 27, 20:16:17
        
        Surely the point is it wasn't being pointed at them (General Chat) - Jim, Nov 27, 19:48:07
        
        They steamed in - images clearly show that... (General Chat) - Dandy Highburyman, Nov 27, 19:47:17
        
        That's fine then. Shoot first ask questions later. (n/m) (General Chat) - Ken Dodds Dads Dog, Nov 27, 19:45:38
        
        ask questions..... get shot....... get a nice funeral....... (n/m) (General Chat) - usacanary, Nov 27, 19:54:18

        They'd probably treat the situation a bit differently I imagine, with it being a war zone. (n/m) (General Chat) - Ken Dodds Dads Dog, Nov 27, 20:15:05
        
        This. Surely they should have pulled up a safe distance away and (General Chat) - Jim, Nov 27, 20:09:37
        
        my thinking too (General Chat) - CWC, Nov 27, 20:15:42
        
        yes because every single gun waved at a cop is a toy gun..... (n/m) (General Chat) - usacanary, Nov 27, 20:08:43
