re: FBI releases video of chase, shooting that killed Oregon refugee occupier

At the point you've crashed your car and are surrounded by cops who have their weapons already pointed right at you, what makes you think reaching in your jacket is the right move? It looks like the guy came out of the vehicle ready to surrender. He puts his hands up at least for a second or two. That says he wants to live. But then he goes reaching inside his jacket. I don't get that. What did he think the cops would do? Why make that move?



ETA: And just so there's no confusion on where I stand. Once he reached inside his jacket, the cops really had no other choice than to put him down. Had he just kept his hands up, he'd be alive today.
