The NYPD shot and killed someone, just because that person shot at them? Man, I hope there's a video out there that catches the last 1/4 of the interaction so Al Sharpton has something to latch onto for his next news conference. Surely the NYPD officer could have danced between the bullets, approached the perp and de-escalated (new progressive buzz-word) the situation.....you know....without excessive force.

Seriously though, thank god the officer and Marshall's are alive and I wish them a speedy recovery. Few agencies need support right now like the NYPD.

Very true! Given that all the LEOs involved (including the NYPD Detective) were Deputy US Marshals, they should all be able to shoot the gun out of the suspect's hand like Wyatt Earp, right???

Now that I think about it, the guy was wanted for sexual assault, I can think of somewhere else they could aim to disarm him...

Perp was white, no one gives a crap.

Perp was white, no one gives a crap.

How true, this guy finally got what he deserved. Sharpton is busy with the cigarette salesman.
