      When I am running away from something to escape danger I do not do so facing the danger and aiming a gun.

      I guess you and that cop have a better method of running away from danger that somehow isn’t primarily concerned with increasing safety by maximizing distance from the danger?

        You suggesting running away indicated to me that you didn’t watch the video and thus don’t have a clear view of what actually happened there. If you did, then my bad.

        Knowing american cops, I wouldn’t be surprised if he was physically unable to outrun the guy.
