The cop aggravated the situation.

Cops deal with these situations hundreds of times a day across the country with acceptable endings. This one ended badly because of a bad cop

Let us not forget that Sterling's actions precipitated the actions that a "bad cop" took.

Alton certainly didn't have to put a gun to the head of a homeless man prior to his encounter with Baton Rouge's finest. If he wouldn't have done that, chances are that incident on that night never would have taken place.
