whats your middle ground?

size up the person you just pulled over and make a snap judgement if they are dangerous or not before you decide to let them berate you or disobey your request to hand over their license?

i'm not sure how a cop is supposed to know someone isn't hiding a weapon when they turn aggressive for a routine stop.

Common sense would usually say a woman with her 2 kids in the car isn't pulling a gun on the cop. Her kids were in the car crying for her the whole time this was going down.

Well, why not just let them use deadly force then in your scenario. After all, it's better than the cop being killed, right?

Some of you would really benefit by reading The Gulag Archipelago. Your mentality is really no different than Soviet citizens in the mid twentieth century. When there friends and family members were being snatched by the government, they remained passive and said the exact same things that so of you are saying. Again, as an American, I find this scary.
