How do you know that the cops gave him a reason to believe that? That to continue to hold the knife and advance on them was the safe option, ya know, vs dropping the knife?
That's a pretty silly retort.
I disagree

That's a incredibly stupid statement

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.
Nothing to do with BLM every effort should be made to talk down a suicidal individual as they are reachable and their life still matters. But we have not even established he was suicidal so this point is moot.

No indication would have happened
