In a tactical situation, Police don't have time to think, "hmmmm, is he telling the truth, or is he bluffing..." "hmmmm, is that a flip flop under a big ass hoodie or is that a big ass gun...." "hmmm, he says he's gonna kill me if I get near him, but he's only bluffing...."

That's ridiculous to think that way.

That article is so obviously written to one side it's comical.

All the ideology on TV of shooting people in the leg to "wound" them long enough to "cuff 'em Dano!" is utterly unrealistic and moronic.

If a person is told over and over and over and over again to show their hands and surrender, yet TELLS and YELLS that he is going to KILL YOU if you get near.......what are you supposed to do? Back up and leave him alone?

Police have over stepped their bounds in some situations I'm sure. From this video, this is not one of those situations. It's tragic that the dog died. It's also tragic that the guy died, but it was at his own hands. If he'd been shot raising his hands out to show he had nothing, it would be different. He wasn't. He was shot when his dumbass, with 50 guns pointed at him, wanted to be a Billy Bad Ass and be a tough guy. How'd that work out for ya there Mr. Tough guy?
this is absolutely true. and i agree with ur entire post like i said before he got what he deserved. the dog on the other hand was only doing his job. and yes they picked the dog up and left him to finish dying becasue the dog is a police officer and they would do the same if it was a human.
