The police finally get him to stop
He opens the passenger door, and tries to flee
As he does so, one officer sees him move his hand towards his waistband and then up as if getting a gun to fire at them
The officers have tried tasers at this point already
The officer seeing that move opens fire.
The other seven officers present open fire.
Dude gets shot like 60 times (good aim on the cops part hum?)-- an average of 7.5 rounds per cop.
He goes down.
The police call for an ambulance
The police cuff him because that's normal procedure
The perp dies.
The police find a handgun and spent cartridge(s) on the front seat of the car.
Seems to me this asshole brought this copocolipse on himself.
Here's the crucial thing: at the time of the shooting, the man was unarmed surrounded by several cops at several angles. One guy screams "gun" and it's a turkey shoot.
Not saying the guy was a complete ass in his actions leading up to the shoot....but what's pissing people off is that you have had several ARMED MASS SHOOTERS who are arrested without so much as a scratch in the last few years....their caucasian complexion was the common denominator.
During times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act.
