    Don’t forget lucky that the officers didn’t start giving conflicting commands. Yelling “freeze” and “put your hands up” then shooting and later claiming “oh I thought he was reaching for a weapon, I feared for my life.”

      That reminds me of that murder of the homeless guy by those cops video that was circulating years ago.

        Makes me think of the shooting of Daniel Shaver. They kept yelling out commands that even a sober person couldn’t understand (Shaver was intoxicated during the incident).
