    WOW! getting yourself killed over a case of beer... how sad/pathetic.

    If you come across a cobra in the wild, wipe it off and apologize.

    Clean shoot for sure. Must have been suicide by cop. What a selfish way to kill yourself.

    You mean it wasnt a real gun? How could those cops be so stupid? They should have waited and verified it before they shot.

    The fake gun may have also been intended to be used in a robbery. Why else would he be concealing it?
    The man wouldn't provide identification to the officers and then brandished what appeared to be a gun.
    My stopwatch noted 2.31 seconds between the time offers had every reason to believe their lives were in imminent danger and when the shooting began.
    It sounds like the deceased was having a difficult time with life (stealing beer .. hiding in a bathroom ..).
    This may very well have been a suicide by a man who didn't have the judgement or strength to try rehab again.
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort.

    Very sad, but I can't see anything the cops did wrong.

    Damn. That male cop was on point. Saves his partner and his own life in a situation that honestly I think most cops would have failed. In the second video u even see the male cop move a napkin with silverware on a table so the guy couldn't grab it as easily and then turn around as the the guy walks by it to make sure he doesn't try. Sad video but people need to see how hard cops have it, and to think that cop probably at best makes 35-40k a year.

    I believe the cops did screw up, why wouldnt they have patted him down in the bathroom when they first confronted him?

    Probably because they wanted to remove the man from the crowded restaurant in case anything were to escalate. From the sounds of the situation, nobody knew he was armed. Had they tried to apprehend the man in the bathroom, there would have most likely been a shootout in the restaurant.
