He should have opened a drive through Daquiri place called Danquirs Daquiris and he would have never been poor enough to find himself in a Burger King looking at the business end of a service weapon. Huge missed opportunity.

"you don't comply, you likely die"

i don't understand how many times do you have to tell someone to put down a gun?

It kind of looked like he was in the process of putting it down when they shot him.

Parking in a handicap spot? Probably justified.

That's what he appeared to be doing in the video. He appeared calm but the officer didn't.

Story behind it give some context though.

According to 911 calls, two women called separately from the Burger King to say they saw a man with a gun. “A customer came up here and he walked behind the counter to fight an employee,” said the first 911 caller, who was inside the restaurant. Moments later, her voice got more urgent. “He got a gun! He got a gun!” she said, adding that he was pointing it at employees. The man was apparently in and out of the restaurant during the two-minute call. At one point, the caller can be heard instructing someone to lock the door. In the second call, a woman outside the Burger King said a man was running up to her car and appeared to be pulling out a gun. The caller said she did not actually see a gun, but she drove off. Officers arrived at the scene four minutes after the first 911 call began, police said.

Well, when the cops are telling you to drop the gun in your hand, that's probably how it'll play out

Prime example of why you comply when held at gunpoint by LE. The guy did not comply and was shot to death.

Interesting to see what kind of rap sheet Danquirs had. More than likely a convicted felon that had no business possessing a gun.

A couple of observations.

1. The female officer runs right in front of the other officers line of fire to confront the guy. That was stupid.

2. What in the ever living frick was the female BK employee doing? You have two officers with a guy at gunpoint and she just strolls up and gets in the way. What the frick?

He was a good boy, and was starting College next Monday.
