Everyone goes on and on about how much they hate Taco Bell, but they still go there because it gets the job done for a quarter the price of anyone else. Which is as Mexican as something can get.

Incelsior saysQuoteYeah I hear yaMurder him instead amirite?These people are supposed to be trained professionalsWhat would you have liked them to do? Run away? Beg for him to not shoot at them? Shoot the rearview mirror so the bullet ricochets and knocks the gun out of his hand? They are trained professionals, after all.

Six police officers opened fire at McCoy for about four seconds.
Police tried to perform CPR, but McCoy was declared dead at the scene.Vallejo Police officials did not confirm the identity of the shooting victim, or how many times officers fired into the car, but David Harrison told the Los Angeles Times that McCoy, an aspiring rapper who went by the name Willie Bo, was his cousin.
Like, I don't know what went down, and we're gonna have to wait for whatever investigation that covers this to find out the truth, but the thread on era is already wildly divergent from the reported facts behind the clickbait headline
We all know that the only time to call the cops is when you find a screwdriver in a Chinese shower.
I remember playing Swat 4 and getting penalized if I shot armed suspects who didn't present a clear danger (aiming the weapon). Because that was against the rules of engagement.But, of course, there never were rules for cops in real life.

But I dont exactly feel comfortable just saying that the guy deserved be shoot by 6 cops for 4 seconds even if he was a scumbag and was planning something.

SFPD’s Mission Station saw McCoy in a silver Mercedes sedan
JadedWriter some of your posts here would be considered bannable. Be careful.
Damn I had no idea admitting my ignorance and apologizing for that would be a bannable offense. That whole topic is pretty much a discussion that I don't think I have the right language for and I honestly wasn't trying to be offensive or dehumanizing regarding it.
Not the apologizing, I meant the initial posts. Since you apologized and were willing to learn and discuss, I didn't report you. Just wanted to let you know

Responses in this thread piss me off. I have no idea what kind of neighborhood this is but what he did totally tracks. When I was younger and I was worried about the environment, I’d take a nap with a knife in my lap just in case. 1. He went to a Taco Bell parking lot because it had enough activity to at least be kind of safe. Better than napping in somewhere totally isolated. Less likely to get robbed.2. He kept the gun on his lap to deter anybody who thought about being stupid. 3. He woke up disoriented. Saw police. Thought oh s—t. Put the gun away because that really would be the first logical thought...Why the officers didn’t tap on the glass or try to wake him is blowing my mind. Even a bull horn at close distance with the lights would’ve worked. Pisses me off. He wasn’t stupid...it’s just street logic. Unfortunately, that can get you killed apparently. I’m honestly trying to think of another way he could’ve handled it if he didn’t have money for a hotel and was too tired to drive any further. Hell, even the manager could’ve told him to move on since he clearly wasn’t a threat asleep.

Next time I'm unemployed and posting on the internet all day, I'm going to call myself an aspiring freelance writer.

Which honestly shouldn't be too hard.
You know what the three most heinous crimes are. Murder, rape, and sitting with a gun at a drivethru.
Cops probably ran his plates and realized it was a garbage human waste of oxygen and decided to save the taxpayer some money. Good on them.

Kid was damned from the start. His only mistake was crashing out in the drive through lane.

What happened
Aspiring rapper sounds like a dog whistle. Why didn’t they just say “human being “?
Also, remember how plenty of people were saying it was fine that a certain celebrity once walked down the street looking for an innocent black man to kill for a whole week, and people were saying not only did he not only not deserve to die for something like that, but everything's cool now, because he's grown past that and matured and demonstrated he's not the person he once was by being honest about the incident and all that?
It’s so sad how that guy wears his beanie everywhere. He looks like an idiot wearing headphones over it. We know you’re bald, fake journalist, just own it.
Yeah, it's not hard. Park a cop car directly in front and behind him so he can't go anywhere and then use a megaphone or car speaker from a third car at a safe distance and order him out of the car and onto the ground. The course of action they took only illustrates how little they thought of his continued existence.
The officers performed a visual check to determine if other occupants were in the vehicle and began to formulate a plan to safely resolve the situation. The two officers decided to hold their position and did not attempt to wake the driver. Instead, they decided to wait for additional officers to arrive on scene and ensured that people in the parking lot were safe and did not approach the vehicle. An additional patrol officer arrived on the scene and the officers elected to attempt to open the driver's door with the intention of one officer swiftly retrieving the firearm from the subject's lap, while another officer covered him. Unfortunately, the vehicle was locked. The officers noticed that the vehicle's transmission was in drive. At this time, additional units arrived and the officers positioned a marked patrol vehicle in front of the subject's vehicle to prevent forward or erratic movement. Officers requested a Patrol Supervisor to respond to the scene for further assistance and began to position a marked Vallejo police patrol car to the rear of the subject's vehicle. While officers were still positioning a patrol unit to the rear of the vehicle, and waiting for the supervisor, the driver began to suddenly move and looked at the uniformed patrol officers. Officers gave the driver several commands to put his hands up. The driver did not comply and instead he quickly moved his hands downward for the firearm.
