So Drk, here's a question you have been dodging. <I ACTUALLY HAVENT AND ADDRESSED PART OF THIS> Why was he the only cop who fired when there were multiple other officers on the scene <TAKE 5 PEOPLE AND STAND THEM ON ONE SIDE OF THE STREET. NOW TAKE 10 PEOPLE AND PUT THEM ACROSS THE STREET FROM THOSE PEOPLE. GIVE EVERYONE GUNS. NOW PUT THE BAD GUY IN THE CENTER OF THE STREET. WHICH PERSON CAN TAKE A SAFE SHOT WITHOUT PEOPLE ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE STREET POTENTIALLY BEING IN THE WAY? NOW, THINK ABOUT WHO WERE THE CLOSEST PEOPLE TO HIM, WHO WOULD HAVE FELT THREATENED...NOW, WHICH OF THOSE PEOPLE HAD A CLEAR SHOT, WHERE NO ONE WAS ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE STREET...THAT WILL BE YOUR BEST GUESS>? No other officer fired a single shot. Here's the answer.....none of the other police viewed him as an imminent threat.<THIS COULD POSSIBLY BE ARGUED BECAUSE NO ONE WAS AS CLOSE TO THE GUY AS THE TWO GUYS WERE WHERE ONE OF THEM FIRED THE SHOTS> Had he really made a move at any officer, or even postured like he was....every officer on the scene would have opened fire.<THIS IS PAINFULLY INCORRECT, AS YOU WOULD HAVE A HIGH PROBABILITY, BASED ON WHAT I JUST TOLD YOU, OF SHOOTING OTHER COPS AND PEDESTRIANS ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE STREET FROM YOU. THIS WILL BE DISCUSSED IN COURT, AS FAR AS WHAT PEOPLE WERE STANDING WHERE AT THE TIME OF THE SHOOTING>
