Pipe instead of a gun. What a moran!!!!!!! Give me a pipe and see if I can kill you with it.
What's more deadly from 0-21 feet? Knife (pipe) or a gun.
By statitics 98% of all shooters will miss their target from 7 meters under stress. Knife will stab/cut you 100% of the time.
By averages, I can stab you with a knife (pipe) before you can pull a gun and shoot me within 21 feet (7 meters).
By statistics, trained police still have a 90% miss rate at 7 meters under stress. Knife still is at 100%.
The only thing I miss is how someone as clueless as yourself is allowed to copulate and vote. Once again posting without knowing the slightest of what you are talking about.
If the cop would have asked for assistance (basically deputizing like in the old westerns) he would of been perfectly legal. Not possible in this situation, but I would not have charged him either, especially the way TX is.
However, I do feel there seem to be many more instances where deadly force is used than ever before where the cops are cleared of any wrongdoing.

They put a bullet in a dudes head as he was standing in his driveway unarmed. I graduated high school with the guy, but hadn't seen him in the 6 or so years since. Odd coincidence, I was visiting my brother in SD that weekend. Saw a report on the news with a guy laying on the ground face first in a pool of blood next to the driver door of a small pickup.
After I get home I find out it was the guy I knew from high school.
Here's a related article:

It was a clear cut case of unjustified shooting.
BUT, it doesn't change that you are completely wrong on the issue with the guy with the pipe, AND wrong to paint all police officers with one broad brush.
First off, I was raised in West Texas, and everyone knew of this shooting. I may have gotten some of the facts askew (deer blind), but WTH MotoX85?!

The cheif should have been fired. Any moron, law enforcement or not could see that. The guy with the pipe should have been shot. How many Border Patrol agents have shot aliens throwing rocks? They had all three of the criteria for deadly force: Intent, Ability, and Means.

Dude is at a rest stop and sees a trooper get shot, then shot with his own gun 6 times, so he grabs his deer rifle and kills the suspect from 150 yards.
GO to the newly discovered section of that site and it has bits about law enforcement deaths all the way back to the 1890's...
Several times in the 1920's and 1930's the suspect was taken by a mob and lynched. I wonder if it was only blacks that happened to.
One cop was killed when he was trying to help subdue a drunk and his fellow officer used his pistol to strike the suspect, and when he did the gun discharged, killing the other officer.
A lot of deaths busting stills, even before prohibition.
One of them near Murfeesboro, TN has a city police officer being shot and killed while arguing with a county deputy about who had the right to arrest a suspect.
Interesting history. Thanks for the link.
I suspect you have problems with comprehension.
How you guys can say with any certainty that this instance was justified or not based on the minimal amount of information in that article shows you're just jumping on the bandwagon without the facts.
Rah rah, sis boom bah.
Another good DPS trooper that was killed in my hometown was Troy M. Hogue. Pulled over a kid and his friends, the kid pulled out an old pistol and shot him in the head. Serving life in Huntsville.
Well, dead man brought that shit on himself.
Very sad; yet, not un-common.
The one thing that separates the US from all these other nations is it's ability to police law and order. Try getting into a wreck in Honduras, and see if you get your vehicle fixed, or try and get the police to deal with a neighborhood drug lord in Mexico.
If you didn't have cops, you would be living like an animal.
Cop to pipe wielding dude: "please don't attack me and wait here while I go get the net shooting device"
Or are you suggesting they all wear one of these devices on their belts?
