The excuses and justifications for criminals are infinite yet a remotely nuanced take on a cop’s difficulties are met with vile hatred and anger



I'm not excusing the criminal. He made a choice, but the power of video. Other cops should learn from it. Could that situation have ended safely with some other approach.

That second voice, "lift up your shirt". it stopped being a conversation with 1 officer and became two people giving orders to 1 guy.
