I'll be perfectly honest here; I'm looking thru this situation from my glasses. I camp and hike all the time and your kind of 'en guard (sp?) while out in the woods. If there was a 3 hours standoff than I don't know the whole situation. I'm judging solely by what I saw on the video. |

Let me think about this for a minute. Okay. Failure to obey a lawful order from a cop will cause you to be shot. Got it. Just like the Cop in New Jersey who shot the lady who got out of her car after being told to "stay". Got it. Oh,forget the fact that the lady was 67 years old and hard of hearing. The "cop"? 25 years old.
I have a few words for you....Pepper Spray, Bean Bags, Tasers, Flash Bang, Non lethal wound and, lastly, sending the dog in. I promise you, I haven't been pulled over in over 40 years. But if I am now, my hands will go on the dash and I will NOT move them. When the cop wants my license and registration, I will TALK him through each movement that I am about to make as I reach SLOWLY for my wallet. I'll be damned if I become a "statistic". As much as I hate to admit it, I guess it really IS true. The more I hear folks talking about how we are "becoming communist Russia" the more it is starting to make sense..... |

I still won't say that he couldn't have been taken down by an arm bar with these trained bad ass guys (LOL) or canine without being shot but it's a better understanding of what escalated. Wanker |

You are lucky that you apologized. I was about to flash bang you.

They didn't just open fire. After three hours of trying to get him to obey the law, they decided to use flash bangs and a dog. He went for a weapon. They then shot him.

"He could throw the knives"
Like this ****ing homeless guy living on a hill in Cali is proficient in the most fictitious method of killing ever portrayed in film. You might as well mention the ****ing ninja stars and katana in his backpack. |

I watched it last night, but don't remember exactly why this guy was being confronted for camping out on public land... is there a law against camping or being homeless?
