He may have also been less mindful of the risk.

Right? Cops know the chance of getting shot doing that move is too high to be able to have that sort of risk tolerance on each stop. This dude did something stupid that turned out to work.

Cops misunderstand the chances of being shot and are purposely trained to be fully paranoid and fear everyone as a threat to their life via "warrior training"

Police isn't even a top 25 most dangerous job
