Why doesn't OP have a link to its source?

This is not logical. They may or may not be. This video tells us nothing about anything other than this specific case.

I didn't get that from the OP.

It's only obvious in context; which is that any Forum regular in this section knows that LT takes a very "pro-police" stance in any and all threads that suggest police brutality or heavy-handed police tactics. He is (in my opinion) using this video of justified lethal force by police officers to suggest, or back up his opinion that, lethal force is often justified and will have been justified in those other cases of apparent police brutality.

When it does nothing of the sort. The video demonstrates that using lethal force was necessary in this case and in this case alone. Nothing more, nothing less.

people with mental issues, are very vulnerable, they are a danger to themselves, and a danger too others, the other problem their is that they know how to hide it, and then it is too late,
