Fuck that. We need guys like this to keep the rest of us safe. They deserve to get home after work. Maybe this suspect is reaching for a gun. maybe he's just an idiot. Why does the cop have to take that risk? Why should he be expected to wager his life on whether this guy is a hostile killer, or a harmless dope.
A lot of cops in the comments to that video seem to disagree. But then again, you also think once you pull a gun you're obliged to kill someone with it, so I'm not surprised you have this attitude.
Nah man, cops fucked up that situation from the beginning. They kept giving the guy different instructions, then yelling at him and totally freaking him out. It's no wonder the guy fucked up at some point.
Cop had a totally itchy trigger finger. I'm surprised he didn't blow the keycard guy away later in the video for not following instructions too.
