Reply #50: This ain't NOWHERE NEAR good police procedure

Lets see:
330AM, what the heck is the cop doing out at that time?
Yes, he has that right, but bundled together with all the other stuff, it makes me wonder.
What the heck is he doing so far from his city?
Again, he has the right, but...
He "Identifies himself"??, How?, from a darkened car, while they are moving?
He doesn't simply call 911 to report a someone driving erratically.
He gets out of his car, escalating the confrontation.
He shoots, multiple times.

There is simply no excuse for this cops behavior, none.

There is no substitute for a well trained, disciplined police officer.
Which, from the info we have, this moron wasn't.
