Some people had questions when the male nurse committed "suicide by cop" in Minneapolis...

Not all the videos were out yet, it was hard to see, hard to tell. - John F. Di Leo

Now enough videos are out. 

They've been analyzed. 

There is no longer any question.
The jackass had drawn his weapon on the police (or it looked to them like he had). 

They had to shoot. 

That's how it works.

• A: If you're a peaceful protester, you don't bring a $1500 semiautomatic pistol with laser sights that holds twenty rounds, plus two spare magazines, with you into a protest. These two things don't go together.
• B: If you aren't there with intent to start a fight with law enforcement, you stay back on the sidewalk with your little picket signs or your little banners. You don't rush up to other people, push and shove people into cars, and get in the faces of LEOs with the intention of provoking a fight. This is obvious.
• C: If you draw a gun on an LEO, that LEO has to assume you intend to pull the trigger. Everyone knows this. So when you draw on a LEO, that LEO is going to have to fire at you. He doesn't know if you're bluffing; he has to assume you're not. He doesn't know if you just intend to kill him or if you intend to kill 30 other people too. He Has To Stop You. He has no choice...
