Like They Say, Never Pull Out A Gun Unless you intend to Use it

All the news from the peanut gallery and where all the nasty trash talk fails miserably.
It can get NSFW-ish here: you have been warned!

He pulled out a gun, got what he deserved. Now the kids can grow up with no father, or one just as shitty, and continue the cycle.

Vallejo is not a suburb of San Francisco. It's all the way up north of Benicia.

If a person is no longer a threat, then shooting them isn't justified.

P.S. Though, if the officer told him "you're under arrest" and he fled, I'm not sure if that changes things i.e. are police allowed to shoot an armed man who resists arrest by fleeing?

Yeah something about him getting shot in the back while he was running away doesn't sit right with me. Ironically, he pulled his gun first and could have easily taken him out, but decided not to to his demise.,

The guy (that was shot) was obviously intimidated in an argument and so he pulled his gun in order to switch it up and put the fear of god into the other guy. When he found out that the other guy also had a gun, he ran like a little girl.

No, but they get away with it all the time.

If the cop immediately shot him before he could flee, I'm not sure there'd be a problem though.

I'm just guessing since it's not mentioned in the article- So I'll fix the headline "Father of 6 with 6 different women with a rap sheet longer than your arm pulls out gun on cop and gets his eternal rest". There, fixed it for you. Tomorrow's headline " Family swears he was on his way to Church services and DIDNU" Same BS, another fucking day.

A headshot at a running target at that distance is damned impressive.
What if it was one guy with six guns?

Hmmm. Pursues the guy, firing the whole time. Like "you ain't dead yet so I have to keep shooting."

No.

You need to pick one job and stick with it. Not this one either, cuz you suck at it.

I see CQ is snowed in again and suffering from "Cabin Fever" like every year. Good he has Internet service. Dog and pony show impeachment over shortly so he can go back to bitching and moaning in his usual style. I miss the whining.

I understand. Ted. Being marooned on that PA hilltop in the middle of Winter in the middle of nowhere with not one person who cares about your existence within 500 miles. Must be lonely. Good

Whatever you're hiding from, I hope it jumps up and bites you. Could not happen to a more deserving person.
