100% absolutely agree. Total disregard for human life. Protect and serve my butt. That is an idiot with power going to his head and to much emotion that is tough to control basic self controls.
Frankly I saw ZERO reason for even a weapon to be drawn in the clip we have been offered to view at this point. To me it looked like the biker was trying to catch the other rider... Even came to a stop at a stop sign no less!! Only to have an overactive emotional officer go to far.
The sad thing is the end result. No human should become disabled like this.
My father was a CHiP for quite a while. That has exposed me to more than the average citizen. My wife and I do have a CW license. In our annual training (Actual real three day course) this type of emotional situation is one of the things they train us on (Plastic guns of course).
What's to say that the officer did not make a mistake and failed to keep his safety on (As many are trained to do, by a trigger lock or cocking of the pistol) and was locked and loaded... Hit that 2.5lb trigger as he was attempting to get out of the car (Remember if weapon is Drawn they are aiming at the target) and accidentally shot this guy.
We have to remember there is no hole in the windshield for this officer to shoot through.
His second mistake was following through with his "Emotion" towards the victim. And yes... Sadly in this situation the Biker is the victim...
We will pray for him and his family...
