re: TOT: Tech students riot and burn police car

First of all, we're all making assumptions based on limited information. I have no idea what really happened.

But - regardless if the guy wanted to get shot - I don't like the increasing low threshold that we're hearing of police using deadly force. I have no sympathy for BLM or any of that garbage but can also step back and see that we have problems if the cops get more and more leeway to shoot anyone that they perceive to be a threat. If you or I shot somebody on the street that we felt threatened by - and all they had was a Leatherman - you can bet your arse we'd be answering a lot of questions.

The facts may come out and this clown may have totally deserved it but on the surface I would've hoped they sprayed or batoned this poor bastard before they shot him in the chest.
