His tactics were horrible. But that does not negate the fact that he likely thought his life was in danger because a 4500 lb car was being accelerated towards him when he fired the first shot. Watch the videos frame by frame.  Also, he’s not standing 15 feet away like most of the video.  He can only hear engine rev, tires spin, and see the car coming direct at him when he chose to act. Perfect defense? No. Beyond a reasonable doubt? Probably.  [/quote]

then why did he start unholstering his gun long before he even went around to the front of the car?[/quote]

I don’t know.  Maybe….Because she did not comply with multiple lawful orders?  Because she almost backed into her wife?  Because a car is a deadly weapon and she put it in gear?[/quote]

He stepped in front of the cars (against best practice).
The officers did not approach or identify themselves. Again, against best practices.
He fired into a moving vehicle with an unarmed woman. Not once. Not twice. But three times. Which then caused the vehicle to crash. Both the frantic firing and the vehicle moving after the shooting put multiple other people at risk.

He exhibited no cool. No critical thinking. No professionalism. To the contrary, he put himself in a position to escalate the conflict. And then, betraying his real state of mind, cursed her as a F'ing B. That's the telltale moment b/c it shows he had neither the demeanor, composure, professionalism, or positive intent that he defenders are claiming. [/quote]
