I know there is a lot of commentary on the Hands Up Dont Shoot mentality that is current in our culture, but this shows us why cops are very wary of that mantra. You must stay aware of a known threat, even if they appear to be compliant, because they might be hiding their real intent and your life might depend on staying aware. This isnt to make commentary on any other case, but to recognize that threats present themselves in a hurry and youve got to be ready for them. Want to learn more?
