I understand what you are saying but mistake or not that kid isn't alive anymore. When I was 18 I almost got shot while reaching for my license and registration after the cop requested that I get my license and registration....maybe that is why I only see one way to look at this? From my perspective (and again I have only seen this thread and nothing else) it looks like with three cops on that guy he didn't look like much of a threat. Either way this is sad.
