Aside from the suspects stupidity, one thing really stood out. The buzz cut, plaid shirt, plate carrier dude looked like he hit a patch of ice when the gun came out while the other officers were extremely cool, calm, and collected.
I saw that at first as well, but upon reconsidering it, I believe it was a combination of surprise that the suspect resisted in the face of overwhelming odds, and the plexiglass covid barrier in the officer's way... I think he was caught off guard and then tried to get low enough to fire below the barrier rather than through it.
Main take aways for me are the usual:
When you're facing down a 12-gauge from close range - it's probably best to comply.
When it comes to shooting people at close range - 12-gauge reigns supreme.
I only clicked on this thread because I thought it was about the election result...
Guess imma need to get one of those 12 ga things one of these days.
On topic, I think Mr. Parker chose...unwisely.
To the benefit of the rest of us.
We could isolate Russia totally from the world and maybe they could apply for membership after 2000 years.

Looking again at the video, the officers were setup for a perfect L-ambush. I doubt it was designed that way, but it worked out for them.
Amen to that.

What in hell was the deceased guy thinking? I know his back was turned part of the time, but he *had* to have gotten a glimpse of The Short Tube Of Eternity pointed at him.
(Perhaps we ought to start referring to 12 gauge shotguns as The Tube Of Woe.)
