The evidence says otherwise 


Fight or flight and a panicked mind does not make rational decisions 



That's not clear at all 



That's a incredibly stupid statement

When is the cops giving him a reason to believe they simply going to gun him down the moment he dropped it eliminated as an option?

Running at two cops with guns when you only have a knife takes balls. He was afraid of going to jail maybe. Not afraid of the cops. Big difference there.

If you want to say black lives matter, fine, but not when it's suicide and they're putting other people at risk of harm. Then that life doesn't matter. Not one bit. He got his wish. He avoided jail.

If the suspect is running at you when you have 30 cops surrounding him, the cops he is running at can back off and run themselves, and as the suspect is distracted by that target, the cops behind him can taser him or hit him with rubber bullets. He still didn't have to die.

Again, there are plenty of videos online of cops taking down armed suspects, even those with guns, and don't kill them.

It is a matter of training. And having enough non lethal weapons, wide parameter and distance.
