In the video, there were people surrounding the young man but keeping their distance BEFORE the cops showed up (they are not trained to deal with people in that situation and they did the right thing)....why the cops couldn't do the same to assess the situation is beyond me.
The cops are idiots and should be fired and tried, they also endangered the public by shooting in the public, the cop could've missed and shoot and innocent bystander.
My left thumb has more people skills than these hick brutes.
