You can do whatever you want to do. One just gets you out of the situation alive and one may not.


The thing is, is that really a guarantee? Because again, once you've heard a certain amount of stories about "Man obeyed cops, was killed anyway" you start to get a little worried.

Even if it's not a guarantee (which it clearly is not a 100% guarantee >.>), why should that change how the law treats this situation?


Well I'm just saying, someone running because they're panicking shouldn't be an automatic death sentence when it's apparently perfectly fine to kill someone in a panic if you have a badge on. If they're going with the "They messed up because they were scared, go easy on them" excuse... why are police the only ones allowed to fuck up when they're frightened?

Again that's not to say "People should be allowed to disobey cops if they're afraid" or "Everyone should get a light sentence if they accidentally kill someone when panicking", but it's odd how people who take up a dangerous but necessary job with kid gloves all the time. Police are humans like everyone else, but if you have a hair trigger and a lack of nerve you absolutely shouldn't take the job.
