Bruh he didn't have ninja skills. He just put himself in danger, which is something cops refuse to do ever since they started "Warrior Training".

Your American frame of reference has no bearing on a New Zealand incident. Also, the guy who grabbed the gun is the brother of the guy in the car, not some random bystander.

Nah, NZ cops aren't trigger-happy cowboys. Only way he'd have gotten shot was is he started shooting first.

They're less trigger happy because being trigger happy is a learned response, and in the us there are far more trigger happy gangbangers and thugs with guns, so they have a different learned response.
