Is This A Justified Police Shooting Or Not?

As long as people have two arms and two legs they can be deadly... please tell me you understand that....
So if a cop has two arms, two legs, a nightstick, handcuffs, body armor, easily radioed personnel for backup, attack dogs, pepper spray, marshal arts training, smoke grenades, tranquilizers, helicopters, and all manner of support specialists at their disposal.. Somehow they still require a taser and the ability to shoot those who don't necessarily obey all of their barked wishes fast enough.. dead at will?

Police work doesn't have to be fair... where do you get that kind of thinking from... do you think our troops in Afghanistan said gee maybe we are too overly armed...
Cops want to go home from work alive and well and uninjured....
Put yourself in their shoes for a change instead of the shoes of a violent thug....

Yes, where do you get that kind of thinking from? I said nothing about fairness. There's definitely no fair fight given the cop proceeds halfway intelligently and crazy people want to go home alive and well too. So what?

Fight or flight is instinctive behavior to all when threatened with violence. A cop should expect nothing less and be prepared to deal with either outcome without seriously harming anyone. Put yourself in the shoes of a loving, long supportive brother, wife, mother, or son. Get a different job or behave like a peace officer instead of a reckless, frightened, hysterical, little thug, resorting to violence first, asking questions later.

Yes, controlling the situation by maintaining a safe distance and calling for backup as needed beats killing someone experiencing a mental break due to not taking their meds. Also, this doesn't involve the army, and we really had no business attacking Iraq or Afghanistan anyway.

Safe distance?... come on... knives and guns can come out of nowhere so fast that I promise you if you were a cop with your attitude you would be dead in 30 days on the street...
I bet you have never even been a bar fight... yet you are an expert in law enforcement... do you know how silly you sound to people who have put on a badge?....

You know how silly you sound simply attacking the messenger? Practice breaking yourself out of a wet paper bag.. then get back to me, wuss.

I'm not attacking you... relax dude... I'm just wondering if you have ever faced an angry opponent in the heat of battle... because if you have you would more understand a cops perspective....

It was a given that this guy was unarmed. Deal with the known, provided facts, not simply your weird imaginings for a change.

A given?... what is a given?... if that given is off just a fraction of an inch a good guy could be dead... don't you care about the good guys?....
 
You should go on a ride around just one night with a police patrol.... you would learn a lot....
You should respond directly to messages instead of making childish guesses about your interlocutor's knowledge, lived experience, or character content.
don't you care about the good guys?....
Are the mentally ill automatically bad guys? Do you presume all cops to be sane and never bad? Practice with a machete on that wet paper bag.
 
Where?... when... show some evidence to back up your hysteria....

This has been done before. It will be done here and once again, later on you will ask for proof.

Did you read the links you posted as proof?.... all three are justified shootings... when a cop has you at gun point do not make sudden moves... do exactly what he or she says... why is that above your head?....
Unreal the amount of idiocy this subject brings out in this nation...

Do you understand the first guy is facing murder charges? All the same, none were armed just as claimed.
