(do you actually read what you write, btw....honestly....that bit about the benefit of the doubt -even- in the face of certain evidence to the contrary is crazy talk...)
Concerning your edit: Yes, I normally do overview what I write before posting.... And even though the evidence may show, that the one under arrest was going for a cell phone, I think the benefit of the doubt should go to the officer, and the one with the authority, rather than the one ignoring it. The one who had to make a quick decision concerning theirs and others safety. I don't think that "stop and put your hands up" is that difficult of a concept for most, and that actions have consequences.
