^^^^ THIS ^^^^
And so many points posted before this.
YOU have no idea what it's like to be in a "fight for your life".
Yes. I watched the video. NO, there doesn't appear to be "Just cause" shown in the video, TO A LAYMAN.
But the truth is, as many of you comment on the officer's "ASS" or the apparent shape she is in, that THIS is the reality of Law Enforcement today. YOU VOTED IT IN! No body wants to tell the woman, the man, the PERSON that tey are too fat, too old, to skinny, too weak.... They simply want to "even the playing field" for those that are not as in-shape, those who are not as fortunate.
In response, WE in Law Enforcement ascribe to the theory "WE NEVER LOSE". If you are in a fight, it is MOST LIKELY a Fight for your life....
This KNUCKLEHEAD not only tried to get away from the officers, he came back to throw a few licks. AND, after that came back for a few more.
Who knows what was happening off camera. All the officer knew is that SHE was outmatched. And, if the perp came back, maybe he'd take her gun and kill her as well as her partner.
She did exactly as she was instructed in her training... MY TRAINING.
Quoting: Travis Bickle Maybe we are watching two different videos. The man fleeing had no time to pick anything up, etc. Manslaughter at best. I understand, the concept, of fight for your life, and making sure you come home, etc., but the use of force the female officer used was NOT justified. No, (Respectfully...) I watched the same video as you. Do you KNOW he did not retrieve a weapon of some kind? I certainly don't. In reality, it doesn't matter. The truth of this situation can be seen in the first few minutes of the video. The "COVER" officer that the dash-cam is recorded from tries to control the suspect, however, the suspect escapse and throws a few blows at him. Even HE is outmatched... Through lack of training, fitness levels, or even his mindset. HE IS OUTMATCHED. Now... The "Fat ASSED" Female that gets the shot off is probably thinking that the Cover Officer is going to save her in some way. But that doesn't happen. So, When the suspect escapes, (Whether or not he grabs an offensive weapon) She is faced with the reality that this guy can do her (or her partner) harm! The thought crossed my mind, in regards to the possibility of the perp retrieving a weapon from his person, but I can't see that happening in the time frame, from the time he gets out of camera range and the shot is fired. Regardless, my friend stay safe. I know you walk a fine line, and most people do NOT understand. THANK YOU... I realize that there are some STUPID FUCKS out there that do some dumb things,for various reasons. and make ALL Cops look bad. But what MOST people don't realize is that the rest of us make decisions in fractions of a second which are examined, cross checked and questioned in the weeks that follow. It comes down to what the officer was thinking at the time when determining the outcome of these cases. I appreciate your insight into the matter. I know it doesn't seem right for this guy to have been shot... Perhaps if other officers were invovled, the outcome would have been different. But one has to look at the totality of the circumstances.
