While I agree 2 years is not long enough, the shooting at cops was while they were doing a welfare check because he was suicidal. Not when they were going to arrest him for Jan 6th. He told his wife he was gonna suicide by cop.

I guess I was confused because part of the article made it seem like the welfare check was somehow in relation to the January 6th thing.

Since when are cops prepared or sympathetic towards anyone who is suicidal?

When they're a) white and b) political allies.
