Extremely irrelevant to the shove, I might add
So fellow LEO being attacked under similar circumstances don’t factor at all?
It is one thing to disconnect emotionally. It is another thing to operate absent of logic.
At this point, you are suggesting that LEO assume that she isn’t hiding a weapon, despite the recent (and VERY localized) attacks on their fellow LEO?
That’s a bold strategy Cotton.

What??
Lower courts must apply current Supreme Court law, not outdated doctrine.
It’s why Barnes v. Felix applies to pending excessive-force cases
It prevents courts from “freezing” the law for certain defendants

To permitting force? Unlikely
If they do, there are much more pertinent facts relevant to the totality analysis (which I already covered).

No.
They would be permitted a Terry stop to check for that after detention.
They don't just get to go up and assault her

Yes or no.

Well okay then.

To use force against a subject currently not a threat who isn't interfering? Not really
Why would it be?
Her actual threat level in the moment is much more important, don't you agree?

What’s under her coat?
How close was she?
At what point is she “too close?”

Cool attempt. The incident started when people showed up to the location of a lawful arrest being made.
It's why they used the language they did.
quote:
You cannot "hermetically seal off" the final moment from the context that created it. If an officer knows a suspect has been acting violently for 10 minutes, that 10-minute history is part of the "split-second" decision-making process.
You are attempting to do this. And SCOTUS says you can not.
They clarified that a "split-second judgment" is often the result of several minutes of "developing events." Therefore, looking at those preceding minutes is not hindsight; it is simply looking at the "totality" of the officer's knowledge.
See those words... EVENT?? no no no.... EVENTS
As asked...How long had she been there? How many interactions with her? What other events add to the TOTALITY of events?

And a certain percentage believe it. That’s dangerous.
That execution took guts and resolve. CBP backshooting a guy on the ground is the most pussy move ever.

If not, that's what Terry stops are for

Feet away. Farther than arms distance

Without a weapon and not approaching?
What do you think is a reasonable threat?

That depends upon the circumstances.

It's not an attempt. It's a hypothetical.
You want to do legal analysis, here is your shot.

No. I'm discussing a short incident. It's 2 very different things.

Key word: often
Not always

Reasonable circumstances or your "the suspect may be hiding weapons under any clothing" circumstances?

Agree, but there were no mistakes in execution these last two weeks. Pretti-Good were a pair of liberal dumbasses whose got themselves killed engaging in liberal dumbassery.

Sounds like you're working out why you're wrong on your own. Good job.
