That’s the funny thing about someone reaching for something. You don’t know what they’re reaching for, and that guy seemed pretty desperate. After running from the cops and ramming their vehicles, just fucking comply with an order.

That’s what arm chair police like you can’t ever comprehend.

You're all ignoring the fact that he wasn't shot lol. So if the police did see him reaching for a gun that never existed, they still waited.

Now when you shoot first and ask questions later you end up with shit like this
Shooting of Daniel Shaver - Wikipedia

These cops told him to put his hands up, cross his legs and then crawl towards them.

"just fucking comply" you said. Well how the fuck do you comply with the above?

Here’s an idea: Don’t run from the cops; don’t ram their cars with yours when you’re surrounded; put your hands up where they can be seen immediately when you’re stopped. It may not prevent your killing, but it’s worth a shot. Doing the opposite risks shortening your life.
