Apparently this man's life has fallen apart over the last 3-4 years and he had started abusing meth and was living on the street. I don't blame the officer, I think it was a justified shooting, but based on this story I think the subject was looking for a permanent way out. He found it.

Man, 27, shot and killed by Huntington Beach officer battled drugs, failed Navy career, his brother says

It’s not “bang bang!...hey? you still a threat?”

It’s “bang bang bang bang...until the threat stops and drops”

But seriously, go binge on those videos before firing back a reply. What was this guys intent? if you watch new video he was seen punching the officer multiple times and the officer even tried a taser so this guys motives were pretty clear. not to mention he was a paranoid schizophrenic.

so what did he grab? news doesn’t make it clear and maybe the cop didn’t know exactly what it was due to the mayhem of the moment, but it could have been mace or his Taser (some issue tasers have multiple rounds). the guy easily could have incapacitated the cop with either and then taken his gun and used it against him making this a deadly force encounter.

when you engage a threat in a deadly force encounter you engage until the threat stops completely and not just after one or two shots. The ASP videos show plenty of encounters where someone is shot once (even at point-blank range) and then they get right back in the fight and shoot the other guy (in some instances a cop) killing them. the videos and commentary are quite educational and could actually save your life (they don’t all deal with shootings)

Ur a generalizing piece of shit like 99.99% of the users on this website. So fucking what if this ASP bullshit shows examples of cops getting killed after shooting they first shot? Every single situation is an individual situation.

This guy was UNARMED. Kind of hard to shoot back after getting shot with no weapon.

That shit unfolded roughly two miles from the house of one of my brothers. But I didn't know that the little bastard took on several slugs before falling.

Since tasers are woefully ineffective a large percentage of the time they are employed, they shouldn't even be part of a cop's arsenal. I recommend training in non-fatal shooting. Take out a knee, or an arm to disable the assailant. There's no reason a cop should have to live with killing some asshole.

Is that a joke

How do you know he is unarmed!?

I'm old school but when a cop tells you to do something, especially when he's holding a gun, you fucking do it. Justified!
