Based on Graham vs. Connor it was 100% justifiable use of force.
It's not even debatable. hush child lol

Damn good shoot and damn good reactions by the cop. No kidding, the cop is a stud.

Damn good shoot and damn good reactions by the cop. Yeah man he had practiced that draw and was ready; the perp was grabbing for his Gun as they struggled so as soon as he had his hand free he got that weapon in the game.

The take down before the shot was most excellent.....the draw was frosting on top.

Severity of the crime at issue? Was the suspect actively resisting and attempting to flee an arrest? Was the suspect an immediate danger to the officer and public?
The answers to those questions will determine legality.
Unless he was a fleeing felon the officer was attempting to apprehend...the see Tn v Garner. I wonder how severe pulling a gun on a cop is......... Obviously a violent felony. And you could probably articulate the act put the officer in immediate danger......so what would that make the shooting? Justified. It's that simple. Pull your head out of your azz people. My head is out of my ass and TN vs Garner doesn't belong in this discussion. I don't know why you brought it up. Nope this is a Graham vs. Connor applicable situation. I'm surprised you of all people didn't want the cop to get on his knees and beg for forgiveness. Or perhaps attempt to de-escalate the situation with kumbaya time around a campfire. Because you're an idiot. Let us not forget your love for the patron saint Floyd. I advocate for different levels of force for non aggressive resistors and aggressive resistors. If you can't distinguish a difference in Floyd's resistance and this person's resistance, it is you who is the idiot. You know what? I take that back. Even if you can distinguish, you are still an idiot.
