I’ve had several run ins with hte law- 2 at gunpoint- both undeserved- and i survived just fine obeying their orders-

there was nothing irrational about “Do not move your hands to your back” Nor anything else that was ordered in the case being discussed- He was told to crawl- the police allowed him to uncross his legs and put his hands down- without issue- it turned deadly only AFTER the man directly disobeyed the cop and reached his hand behind him for the second time- Had the fella kept crawling like he was ordered to do everything would have been fine - he didn’t- he qwuickly swung his hand behind him and hte cop had a split second to make a decision-

You keep forgetting this fella was accused of pointing a gun at traffic- and someone said shooting the gun- which later turned out to be false- but the cop did NOT have the luxury of knowing that at that time- for all he knew, and rightfully so- the fella had a gun tucked into his pants- Yuo keep leaving all that out and claiming the kid was ‘totally innocent’ despite the cop not knowing that at the time - you are looking back in hindsight now knowing NOW that the fella didn’t infact have a gun- and emotionally calling the scene based on that- you have the luxury of hindsight- the cop did not

I’ll do just fine in any situation where a cop expects me NOT to reach behind my back- it’s pretty cut and clear that that is a big big no no- not too hard to understand

You’re really gold plating that false police report to back up your untenable situation. You’re supporting a total dickhead who was removed from the force before this abomination went to trial. Hang your hat on an unstable a-hole who clearly couldn’t cut it, go right ahead. If you’re still here to ping you will be, to the massive civil suit that everybody knows is coming. You can spin your silly yarns in defense of a demonstrably bad cop some more, and it’ll be just as stupid then as it is now.

Bob...cops aren't supposed to set out to murder people...they're job is to keep the peace and to take perps in if need be...

standing there shouting convoluted instructions and pointing a menacing gun at someone, all the while wearing your super macho not official outfit with all the Robocop bells and whistles, and treating the uncharged, un arrested people like trash, is NOT what I expect a good cop to do...

a good cop defuses the situation, he does not escalate it...
