It’s stupid what he did.
Why is that so hard to comprehend?
If the he in this sentence is the cop I agree.

Who the frick answers their door in the middle of the day with a gun in hand after cops have banged on your door and announced themselves? This didn’t happen at 3 am.
Whether SOP or not what the cop did is set up a situation that was sketchy as hell for the person inside the apartment. Banging without announcing and then disappearing out of view creates a situation where if a person has hairs on their neck they should be at attention. Within the 4 corners of the video the man did nothing illegal nor anything that could be construed as furtive in my opinion.
If you argue what the man did is stupid you have to see the root of that is a cop problem. When you get shot and not a single thing you did in front of the cop is illegal that is not a citizen problem, or it shouldn't be.

knocking on someone's door in the middle of the day is sketchy?
Yeah i find it sketchy when the mormons or the other christians or the finanacial advisor knocks on my door in the middle of the day too. I usually greet them with a gun in my hand.
I've had a cop knock on my door during the day before. I didn't go get my gun like a dumbass.

in the middle of the day? you get hairs on the back of your neck when someone knocks on your door and isn't in the peephole?
You've seen the video right? this isnt' happenign at 2am. If it was 2am, then all of this nonsense your spouting would make sense.
This happened at 4:30 PM

This is as stupid as saying "i have freedom of speech and can say whatever the frick i want without consequences". that's not how freedom of speech works.
And this is not how owning a gun works. Sure it's legal to have a gun in your house, and you can be armed in your house when you answer the door if you so chose, but by doing so you just escalated the situation. You've now given the other person on the other side of the door a reason to believe their life is in danger b/c you brought a gun out. It's not a device you should use as a threat.
and again, who the frick answers their door at 4:30PM with a gun in their hand. Again, I know it's perfectly legal to do so, but it's beyond stupid. And if you are doing shite in your life where it's warranted to answer the door that way at 4:30, then I don't really give a shite about what happens to you.
