I was guessing the same thing, he was way to calm.

If the weapon was a gun thats a different story, hes charging your partner attempt to take him down, release the dog. Create space, so your not in that position hes close enough to do that. Do your job correctly and youd never have to pull that trigger, theyre trained for a reason. If this kind of situation ends like this your a poor excuse of an officer, point blank.
The city of Monterey Park now has to deal with a legal lawsuit. The police officer will be fired and prosecuted. Protest and riots. Media scrutiny. On and on and on all because this fat pig was trigger happy!
These dudes are to weak minded to realize this though. Im not in his shoes because I didnt choose to be, but he did. Cops arent cowboys no one was in immediate danger, if you cant handle the situation you drag it out til back up arrives, you dont close in get close enough for one of you to be hit then shoot to kill. This isnt the old west and all of this was simply unacceptable.

The immediate threat was there. There was no time to sit and react. Guns were ALREADY drawn and the consequences were made really clear.
The assailant then chose to charge at an armed officer (who didn't even shoot him) with a deadly weapon. The partner had no choice but to shoot the assailant... the only thing left to discuss is why 10 rounds..

I wouldn't say all that, he definitely had other choices but I think based on the video it was justified
The only thing that would change my stance on this is if the cop really did shoot dude on the ground
Someone did get hurt. Those stray bullets could have easily killed someone.Originally Posted by kiendienn
good riddance.
+1 police
+1 no innocent bystanders getting hurt

[/url]That's when the other officer opened fire, shooting the suspect five times. After he was down, according to ABC7, fire more rounds were heard coming from the cop's gune.
One round hit the sign of a neighboring Tommy's restaurant; a woman standing underneath sustained minor injuries.

It sort of stop being a life or death situation after the 3rd or 4th shot when the crowbar fell out of the guys hand.Originally Posted by shoefreakbaby

How can anyone comment on the amount of shots fired. In that situation with his adrenaline pumping in a possible life or death situation he squeezed that trigger until he saw the guy stop moving. The amount of shots fired doesn't really change my opinion of what happened.
end of discussion as in we have different viewpoints of the situation. Apparently you think the whole thing can be magically avoided somehow and it was the officers themselves who called this dude up and told him to smash windows with a deadly weapon inside a family restaurant.Originally Posted by Wade187

ya... not really.
Cops did what they had to do. They neutralized a public threat while giving the assailant every possible opportunity to concede his position until he proceeded to move forward against a police officer, guns drawn.
Tazers only have one charge, and it was already used. If you look closely, the officer with the tazer reached to get another charge of some sort after the first one failed. The assailant moved forward... and that same officer dropped everything and also reached for his firearm but was late since his partner already unloaded into the bad guy. The threat was there, and was instantly neutralized.Originally Posted by Wade187

I guess you'd rather wait until your partner gets smashed in the face to determine if the threat was evident or not.
Not me.
And for the record, the assailant didn't drop on the floor until the 7th or 8th round was fired.
No im more of the release the dog before my partners close enough to get bashed kinda guy, tazer a guy more then once kinda guy, wait for backup if I cant control a situation kinda guy, of course I cant control my partners recklesness but im not the kinda guy whod make excuses for it either. Your talking as if dude appeared out of no where in good enough position to pose this threat.

Police dog, rubber bullets, tazer, pepper spray and that fat pig decided to just shoot a man dead in broad day light. WOW!
