        Man was deaf, not blind. Why he was approaching police with a pipe? He didn't see police aiming their guns at him?

        US Police are known to draw and open fire within seconds of sighting a person. Maybe he assumed they wouldn't be homicidal lunatics.

        Maybe police assumed he wouldn't be suicidal lunatic as well. I am just saying.

        For all we know, he was walking towards them with the pipe in his hand, not making any threatening motions.

        In most civilized countries, walking up to police (with or without a pipe in hand) isn't met with lethal force.

        He was walking from his own porch, where he was clearly exercising his right to be prepared to defend himself and his property.

        You can't make laws to allow citizens to be armed and use weapons, and then execute them for exercising those rights in a reasonable manner.

        Yes, but those laws are for self-defense against criminals in a reasonable manner, not to attack the law enforcement personnel.

        No excuse for this. None. The dedicated officers need the training to spot the hearing impaired. Tragic results for all involved.

        Cops absolutely refuse to take a chance on getting scuffed up. They'll shoot to kill before possibly mussing up their uniform. NOT. HEROES.

        'Zero' is the acceptable number of cops with inadequate training and inadequate courage.
