Unless Mike was on top of him, surely there is some training for officers to
disable the dude with a shot to the leg or abdomen without shooting him in the
head twice. Six shots is excessive if Mike was at a distance, in my opinion.
And come on with the drama. If you saw the video, be pushed the store owner with his
left arm. He didn't strangle him or punch him. Shoplifting is wrong. He should have been
arrested for it.
If Mike in fact "caved his face in" they could have showed a picture of his face the first damn day
and it would have changed a hell of a lot instead of trying to hide his identity. This entire thing
has been an incredible PR debacle.
And the militarization of the situation has done nothing but inflame the community. Good Call Drop. Genius.
The most interesting man in the world must have missed that while traveling the world farming, machine
shopping, drinking beer with soldiers, and monitoring Gary Pinkel and DGB like a little B.
