CD- that's about it! I don't blame the cop at all. Split second decision some chitbird pushed him into.

The way he went azz over tea kettle and rag dolled, it must of been a CNS hit. Pretty good at that range on a fast mover!

I didn't see the fella threaten the cop. It looked like the dummy needed a holster and a lesson on wearing pants, at a minimum. He dropped his pistol and went to grab it and haul azz. He was trying to get the fugg out of there.

The thing is, will a civil jury agree.

Oklahoma jury's have made more baffling decisions. IE: the pharmacist who's doing life.

Take a look at that power-point. Pretty good explanation of reactionary time, etc.

You has gots to be jiving if you thinks dat wuz a gun . Know what I'z sayin.It was one of dem new Glock cell phones!! Know what I'z sayin.....Just kidding .The cop was doing what all cops(black,or white)are trained to do if they see a suspect pick up a gun...The blacks need to stop making excuses for the behavior of their criminal element,and black parents need to use cases like this as examples to their kids as how not act,instead of glorifing the criminal,and gangsters..Even a pimp is glorified in the black community ..

The power point tells you what you need as to why his shots were spot on. Likely some of the other officers shown on seen would not have faired nearly as well.

It sucks when your gat falls out your britches leg while you are trying to run from the po-leece. It sucks worse when you stop to pick it up.

Now there is one less turd in the world.

They bitch about 'today' but truth is, if that happened 40 years ago the 'Pastor', or whatever he was, would have been capped too on general purpose for getting in the way.

If you're talking about the idiot on the left with the tie, he should have been shot.

I'm thinking a front kick applied to that necktie would have put him back in his right mind.

But at the very least, it is a damnable shame that warning shots are so heavily frowned upon. Had the nice policeman barked one off between the sharp dressed goofball's feet, he'd have understood the loud, repetitive verbal commands to "get back" so much better.

at the least the guy with a necktie should be charged with endangering the life of a LEO.


stupid azzhole, no way to know whether the perp was dead and he's got a handgun, just what the cop needed, a distraction, when he's facing an armed adversary

he never shot at the guy till he saw the gun, and once he saw that from a fleeing suspect, all bets are off, no way to know the guy's intent, running for cover to return fire? take a few innocents out with him now that the gig's up?


the cop did very well imo, showed great restraint and decisive action when called for.

guy with the necktie, he's lucky to be alive, walk into a highly adrenalized situation where gunfire is taking place. Cop has no way of knowing whether you're a confederate of the perp or not.


I'm pretty certain when we sing our anthem and mention the land of the free, the original intent didn't mean cell phones, food stamps and birth control.

Overall, I'll grade the Officer an A+.

Arrived in 2 minutes.

12 seconds from the time he dropped the gun until he was done.

5 shots in 1.3 seconds.

And a very fast eye that caught the one frame when the gun was actually pointed at him...

And he DIDN'T drop kick the interloper.

I hope all works out well for him.

OH, and most importantly HE HAD HIS CAMERA RUNNING, SO WE WON'T HAVE TO DEAL WITH ANOTHER DOZEN BUSINESSES GETTING TORCHED OVER SOME FALSE CLAIM THE GIRLFRIEND BEATING FELON HAD HIS HANDS UP.

"And he DIDN'T drop kick the interloper."

I'd still go with the A+ even if he HAD shot the preacher.
