what the fuck are you talking about? my point was that it probably wouldnt have even mattered. he didnt have a gun on him when he was shot. people have been killed for even less to the point of showing ANY kind of aggression can potentially get you killed. going for a taser? dead. holding a knife? take one step and dead. make a fast hand movement to your side? dead. struggling to be held down? potentially dead. specifically because the training is too loose in general and cops are taught that EVERYONE is a threat and that they know the system will go out of its way to protect them in 99% of those instances. thats not how it used to be to a large degree. not till the late 80's when the training started to shift towards protecting the system rather than the people.

If you have the stomach for it watch the video from 2020 of 2 Tulsa police attempting to arrest David Ware.

That video bothers me a lot. Because both officers are shot, one doesnt make it home. Because a subject who is not combative, assaultive, but just passively and actively resisting with police who are attempting to arrest him. Then suddenly, in literal milliseconds, produces a gun and kills one officer and gravely injures the other.

It shows you how quick you can go from routine traffic stop and arresting someone who may appear harmless to not going home to your family. Its fucking milliseconds

Yall wonder why the police are so itchy on the trigger. But so obviously fail to see the world theyre up against.
