[QUOTE="Ana the Ist, post: 73975612, member: 302807"] Well.... Let's assume that he's telling the truth, there was a gun, and the driver did point it at him. That clearly would justify the initial shooting. The thing is, the driver continued to flee after that...and the officer pursued....and then jumped out and shot the guy two more times. Those are tougher to justify. One could make the argument that the driver posed a threat to any officer or citizen who stood in his way, but that's a tough argument to make. We'll see how it turns out I guess. I agree though, that NYT article was light on details....heavy on "cops are evil" rhetoric. They spent almost as much time talking about Castile and Sterling and other irrelevant stuff as they did the actual case. [/QUOTE]
