@adambanksdotcom You're effectively asking them to wait until they're shot at. Entirely unreasonable.

@bazzacollins I’m saying if there was no gun you have a problem and you damn well *ought* to have a problem. Even US cops accept that.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@adambanksdotcom There was a gun. He threw it out of the taxi just before they shot him. Pretty reasonable grounds to suspect he was armed.2 replies 0 retweets 0 likes -

@bazzacollins Question that needs answering is what was he meant to do? How could outcome have been improved?1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@adambanksdotcom Outcome could have been improved if he didn't carry a gun. Jury clearly not buying the eyewitness account.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@bazzacollins You’re saying is once police knew he had a gun they went expecting to have to kill him whatever happened. That’s execution.2 replies 0 retweets 0 likes -

@adambanksdotcom No, I'm arguing that police shouldn't have to put their own lives at risk before shooting an armed suspect.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@bazzacollins We’re told police put their lives on the line every day for public protection. Not shooting unless you’re sure is exactly that2 replies 0 retweets 0 likes -

@adambanksdotcom It's simply unreasonable to expect police to give armed suspects an opportunity to shoot them before they fire weapons.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@bazzacollins I don’t understand what you mean in practice. Once they believe you have a gun, they just kill you? If not then what?1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes
@adambanksdotcom Police should do everything possible to remove threat without killing suspect. Sometimes that's not possible.
