“However, there was a time in this country our police would have tried to talk the man down, or get him to drop the weapon before shooting.”

This guy never posed a threat or perceived threat to the police.

He was a rampage killer and first response should be to NEUTRALIZE that threat. Permanently.

Said he had a gun, said “kill me”. Had just attempted to kill over a dozen people and was successful in at least part of that number.

The video showed the suspect repeatedly pulling an object from his side and aiming at police.

Wouldn't that seem to be a perceived threat? Or did the officer recognize that it was not a weapon?

He pointed his finger like a gun at the cops.

This freak was definitely hoping for suicide by cop. Look at him draw on the cop 2x, I’m amazed the cop didnt put 10 holes in him then and there.
