It has been mentioned that this is the first time in us history a "drone" has been used to take a life of a us citizen on Us soil
Most likely as he hovered over the robot for a few moments the decision was made to detonate rather than let him possibly take the explosive detonation device from the robot.
I'd love to think they did it on purpose to kill him but most likely it was a tactical defensive maneuver
Officer: "damnit, he's still barracaded"
Chief: "any way to out flank him?"
Officer: "negative, sir!"
Chief: "can anyone get a clear shot?"
Officer: "negative. He has has the high ground. Takes a shot as soon as he sees movement."
Chief: "how much ammo does that douche have, anyways?"
Officer: "hundreds we think. Robot shows him pulling mags out left and right."
Chef: "robot, huh?....Johnson!"
Johnson: "sir!"
Chief: "you still got that c4 in your trunk from our 4th of July party?"
Johnson: "yes sir."
Chief (pulls the cigar away from his mouth and exhales): "I've got an idea"I don't like Republicans, but I really FUCKING hate Democrats.

Have to say I have mixed feelings on using a bomb to kill him. Due process goes out the window during live fire if the guy won't surrender, I get that and would rather have him killed on the scene than pay for 10 or 20 years of appeals. On one hand this was an extreme circumstance and after an hour of shooting the only way to stop him. It wasn't the first thing they tried. And like 4king said it may have not even be planned and if that was the case it is even more easily justified. My concern, and where I am iffy on the method, is that it sets a dangerous precident. We have all seen how many trigger happy cops are out their who seem to be itching to kill. How long before they use explosives because it was accepted once in Dallas? How long before swat teams or even patrol officers start requesting and receiving grenades as standard issue equipment?
I am not a anti cop, fuck all the police guy. I am also not the extremely pro police guy I once was. Law enforcement across the country have succeeded in making a lot of sensible people very cautious to trust cops. Backing and covering for the really bad cops makes a lot of the others bad or untrustworthy. There has been a spike in bad behavior by cops and departments and that makes people like me question everything they do. I wish we could return to the days where most cops were like Andy Griffith, but militarization and bad behavior continues.
Going from one incident of using a bomb as a last resort, to standard issue grenades in all squad cars is not the stretch it once was, and that is why I don't like that this happened, although I understand being pushed into that corner.I don't like Republicans, but I really FUCKING hate Democrats.
