Trigger trained cops - this is the result of shoot if in doubt training

When police are trained to shoot if they suspect a problem, this is what happens. It's also why people begin to fear police, even honest people can become targets by mistake.
He fired 9 rounds and only had one hit. had he been a better shot, the old guy would be dead. Sure he's upset, but does that give a kid his grandpa back if he'd been a better shot?

What bullish*t. Take their guns away and give them squirt daisies.
I guess in today's world, it's the citizen's if he doesn't want to be shot during a minor traffic violation stop.
To be honest, had that old guy really been intent on shooting the deputy, he most likely would have, he had plenty of time and the kid couldn't hit the broad side of a barn - thankfully for the vet.
