Been in a lot of armed suspect situations, have you?

But what is she was talking a lot of sh**? Like mad s talking.

Never, ever present yourself as a threat to a police officer. Unless you are ready to assume room temperature.

I like to consider possible outcomes....I see 3 and 2 are really bad and 1 while better is still bad.

1. What happened, you are dead....
2. You end up shooting the Leo and he is dead and you are getting the death penalty
3. The Leo backs out, you end up in some kind of hostage situation whether that was your intention or not. You go to jail or the nut house or both.

Any other outcome is pie in the sky nonsense. Call me crazy but I would choose none of the above and leave my guns in the closet, take the domestic disturbance wrap, get a divorce, and move on.

That math is pretty easy.

"Hello, 911, yeah it's me again, my dad's calmed down but now my mom is screaming a lot"

Badda bing!

I have to say that in that situation, having a gun in your hand with a cop coming in and doing anything except putting it down is about the least intelligent thing you could possibly do.

^This 100%! I’ll bet her husband learned a very valuable lesson and will never do it again.

I've watched this about 25 or 40 times trying to see and hear what was said inside the house.
Gave up on that but I'm guessing that cop had trained pretty darn well on when to drop a mag and slap in a fresh one like that.
it looked like he started out with pistol in right hand, then went to both hands?

7 rounds fired. He dropped that first mag and slammed in a full one and looked to me like he had a round back in the chamber - all in a bit less than 1 second from mag drop till ready to fire.
I can't imagine learning to do that so quick especially in a real life situation without practing 100's and 100's of hours.
Mabe one of our current or retired LEO'S can explain what kind of training that requires. Or other comments on the whole affair.

Good shooting, sure, but shouldn't he have announced his presence before going in? " Hey police are here, come out so we can talk to you". Are they not trained to do that?

Hard to make a judgement based on that video. He came around the corner and there the guy is armed and ready. If you hesitate, maybe he starts shooting, it's a bad situation and I am in the camp, that if the cops come, don't have a weapon in your hands because they may shoot you if you do.

He never even had an opportunity to drop it- he didn’t point it at the officer. I don’t think the officer had any other options at that point- but he should’ve waited to go in.

My only question is who parks a hot rod side by side in their driveway in the suburbs?

WAWI I have never said he wasn’t stupid,dumbazz or anything else you would like to write in here, He had options for sure, my point is the officer is the adult and should have waited when he lady ran outside, no one was in there at that point. That guy should be in jail right now not dead. I am only saying the office didn't need to push the issues right then nothing more. He didn't announce a police officer was coming in, he did nothing from what I can tell on the video to deescalate the situation. The guy doesn't have great IQ are he wouldn't be arguing with his wife to the point the kid felt the need to call the police and the kid didn't say on the call he was beating his mother he said they won't quit hollerin at one another.

I don't think the cop had a heck of a lot of choices once he decided to push the issue. The guy is dead because he's stupid, the cop could have and should have once the wife ran outside to stop and find out what needs to be done at that point, not just ran in and killed some nut so he can have a good video. just my .02
