> What more do you want? A picture? A video?

I want police officers to assess if there is any danger before shooting. The guy they shot was not even the guy who made the call, they had no proof that it was the same guy. I just want police officers to think about the current situation before shooting. If he had no weapon drawn, he was not a threat and there was no reason to shoot.

In the U.S. military, operating in a foreign country, the typical orders under similar intelligence are to go and evaluate the situation themselves to determine if there is really a threat, before opening fire.

It seems crazy to me that soldiers operating in a theater of war are held to a higher standard for use of lethal force than officers of the law interacting with U.S. citizens.

> What more do you want? A picture? A video?

Direct observation of the threat. Period.

> someone was armed and dangerous

That's a rumor at that point (just like ANY call). They need to assess it themselves. Arriving at a scene and assuming anyone they see is this someone also seems pretty irresponsible.

Evidence?

Rules of engagement that don't immediately mean an innocent person winds up dead?

Can you honestly not see this?

A conviction

So it'd be okay for the cops to shoot you if I made such a call to your address?
