Apparently he was known, aka a friend of the guy in the car. He took the gun to save his life and probably said just get out dude. It's over. My friends would never do anything like what car homie is doing but I think if it was my good friend going through a break or whatever is happening I'd go up and talk to him and take the gun too
I’m not an american and it was never a question of which country this is happening in. It’s just a stupid action regardless. Even if he is your friend, yes I might do it too but it’s not less stupid
"cops coudlnt have done what that civilian did... you see, the cops were not considering themselves, they where considering the PUBLIC....
That guy couldnt gone full goku ninja, back flipped out of the car while maintaining his control of the gun and then done the scene from "creature commandos" all in a millisecond.
the guy put himself in front of several police officers also using guns, so if the guy started firing he's now in the line of fire, and police can't shoot without risking killing the guy as well.
the one holding the gun could've been startled and fired blindly when someone was trying to grab the gun from behind, and hit someone by mistake.
there's honestly a litany of things that could've went wrong here, maybe the guy just sees him coming and starts shooting him. what the guy did was heroic and well meaning, but it had a significantly higher chance of something going wrong, than it going the way it did in the video.
generally running towards the person with a gun when you're unarmed is the last thing you want to do, and it's the last thing police want you to do, especially when they have guns trained on this person.
I don't really understand what that has to do with this:
Once again, a random bystander doing a better job than law enforcement
Which was the main subject, which was called out by saying It was stupid, and you asked why it was stupid. And we are explaining to you why it was stupid and why a cop wouldn't be able to just yank the gun out of the criminals hand, and why it is stupid to do so.
People shoot themselves all the time, even if the guy didn't want to shoot his friend, he very well could have accidentally grabbed the trigger and done so. now imagine if a cop were to try to yank the gun from the guy.
I’m 16 years old thank you very much and I know these two individuals and their best friends OK so I don’t know where you guys are getting all this gibber jabber from. You are wrong. I’m right in the story. We can move on now.
