Cop's shooting caught on video

[Mean Morone]

If I had cops around me like that, I would have been flat on my face with my hands as far away from my body as I could possibly get them. Why oh why can't bad guys(and innocent people) understand that?

Many police have to face thugs every day in their job duties. They never know if someone is going to comply peacefully with them or fight them. The fight of flight situation puts a lot of stress on officers.

They want to do their job and go back home to their families at night.

This suspect was very nervous and they should have had him on the ground on his face with a knee in his neck so that he could not have pulled out the gun. The one policeman with what appears to be a taser is out of position for a shot as his partner is in the way. He later called in "Shots Fired" on the police radio and seemed to be exhausted by the ordeal. The suspect's hands are not under control during this attempted arrest and he was able to fend the policeman off with his left hand and reach back behind his back to the 9 O'Clock Position and pull out his handgun and get a shot off. Luckily he missed the police and ran off. It's not shown in the video as they suspect and the policeman who pursued him ran out of frame. But I think that the suspect ended up getting shot and killed by the police.

This sort of reminds me of the case last sumer where the black kid reached into Officer Wilson's patrol car and went for officer Wilson's gun and fired a shot inside the police car. Then after running away the big kid came running back at Officer Wilson to attack him before being gunned down in the street. If you shoot at the police better be prepared to DIE. This is the same black kid who was over 6'8" tall and almost 300 lbs and who had previously that morning performed a strong armed robber of a store. He physically man handled the store clerk while stealing some cigars from the store. Funny I can't remember the name of the Black Kid right now.
