        if he reached towards his pocket right after or while telling the officer he had a gun? I'd say yep, he would have been shot.

        .@nytimes The police officer was Asian. Does Democrat Mark Dayton still want to sheepishly & politically call all white Minnesotans racists?

        do you think officers care what color the person is that appears to be about to pull a gun on them?

        I said "appears". If u tell a cop u have a gun and then reach towards your pocket, it would APPEAR you are going 4 gun.

        a reasonable person would conclude he wasn't reaching for a gun in the presence of a child
