Controversial oppinion, perhaps: would it not have been a better option to just, give up and let him go (for now), rather than fucking shoot him? I mean, wasn't this over a traffic stop?
Maybe, maybe not. If he were to then go off and commit a serious crime, people would be asking why the officer let him get away.
Are you saying police should shoot people during routine traffic stops just in case, because they might otherwise commit a serious crime at a later date?
