Officer shows restraint after a driver pulls out a gun
BLM and the race hustlers ought to give this cop an award for the incredible restraint he showed.
But that won't happen. It would be bad for business to award cops for showing restraint.
My uncle tried to commit suicide-by-cop by running at a police officer with his hands in his jacket as if he had a gun there. Fortunately, the cop saw through it and stayed cool and he’s alive and well today.
How long before the Left demands that “body cams” be eliminated?
I knew someone who faced a similar situation in the Gulf War. He and a fellow soldier encountered 2 Iraqis who shouted to them they surrender while each having a hand behind their backs. Despite repeated demands to them to show both hands they refused to comply and their was no other alternative but to shoot them. It turned out they were holding fully loaded 9mm pistols. Even though the shooting was justified he still suffers from PTSD over it. So yeah, police in general HATE to be put in those situations. Another friend has been a cop for over 25 years. So far the only times he shot his gun is at the range. The few times he had to take out his gun during an arrest, the suspects had the sense to realize he meant business and complied.
The idiot is very lucky the office had such patience.
Cop needs to be suspended until he can be re-trained and retested.
First he holds his handgun ‘gangsta’ style, then he shows an unwillingness to defend himself.
BLM and race hustlers only get involved when there is money and/or power to be gained from getting involved. Hence their dead silence when blacks kill blacks or anyone else.
