True that. As soon as he saw the guy holding the gun, that is the green light to light that guy up. I rather face suspension then letting some guy shoot at me first...

On January 28, 2000, the suspect was found guilty of murder and on January 30 was sentenced to death.

edit: more info on the actual fight

Brannan, a Vietnam veteran, advanced firing on the deputy. Dinkheller returned fire, but succeeded only in breaking a window in the driver’s side of the pickup and wounding Brannan in the stomach. Using `suppressive fire’, Brannan systematically, methodically shot Dinkheller in the arms, legs, exposed areas that would not be covered had Dinkheller been wearing a bulletproof vest, slowly executing him. Reloading his weapon Brannan continued firing with the final death shot to Dinkheller’s right eye.

i felt bad for him, he just too nice that he should have shot the crazy dude

[420sx]

he was way too nice

[m0rex]

I saw that. Its like of the top shocking videos that i've seen in a while. Damn it was so sad hearing just seeing the cop not being able to do anything. I've been in situations like that before they feel like shit. I mean just imagine yourself in his place.

[FaLKoN240]

I almost started crying when I heard him screaming. Fucking crazy vets. He should have shot him after the 2nd put the gun down. But if he did, he probably would have lost his job or some bullshit. That's a shame a man with a family had to die, over a traffic stop.

[HyperTek]

dam thats sad. Sometimes you gotta respect police officers work even tho we dont like thier judgement towards cars. Yah hearing him scream is pretty frightening. Just imagine if the cop happened to be asian, that war vet prolly woulda went super berserk and blew up the car or soemthing.. go all rambo or somethin.

That cop was young too.. so that means he was a cop at 18?

you make me do this every time you post ->

[MakotoS13]

and you guys wonder why cops are a little on edge sometimes. every time they pull you over they're trying to figure out if that exact situation is about to happen. think about that the next time you wanna dish out some attitude or Ethuggary about some ticket.

That's exactly how I feel. It's sad he had to die. People bash on cops too much..

definately.

[mrmephistopheles]

I would've shot once he aimed the gun at me, but obviously I wasn't in that situation.
When I was an MP (and especially when dealing with civilians) I was hypersensitive to any possible threat.
I only ever drew my pistol on 1 guy, but it was a stressful experience. Fucking meth junkies.

[TiNMAN]

my stomach is fucking turning.

[Ian]

fuck that, i woulda shot him after he said "No" the first time


my friend is a cop, and i respect them very much. some of them are douche bags, but most of them are just doing their job.

*hats off to the fallen officer*

[SilviaNinja240]

ah jeeez, thats fucked up. My condolences to his family

[kuramaya]

damn that sucks, I dont see why once the suspect was in the car so long he didnt get into a more defensive posture and prepare for some crazy stuff to take place...really sad...that guy was high as a kite..sounded like he returned fire but unlike movies, that show you exactly how hard it is to shoot with a pistol accurately, especially under stress...

[TheWolf]

Exactly the reason they have tazers now.. Don't comply.. Zap.. wouldn't have given him a chance to go back to the truck and get the rifle

[420sx]

i feel bad, but damn he was soft with that dude. he kept telling him to stop for some time. remember the phrase "if u gonna shoot - shoot, dont talk". meth junkies are no joke for real

[Andrew Bohan]

so who can tell me exactly what cops have to wait for before they can shoot people? i want some kind of official police rule or something.

they that guy waited til he got shot at, which is way to long in my opinion.

[Eternal_240Sx]

i think if they see you going for a gun or any kind of lethal weapon they can shoot you.

someone correct me if im wrong.

[slide_or_die]

^^no you are right
a cop cant fire unless his life is in danger.
he didnt fire cuz he wasnt sure about the gun till he saw it
damn...

[infinitexsound]

pretty intense.........

[MakotoS13]

thats also the reason my family carries 45's and not pussy 9mm's. you get hit with a 45 slug and you're gona feel it no matter how many drugs you're on. 9mm's don't have real stopping power unless you really hit center mass or the head.

[TheSnail]

With a SPAS in the trunk, getting hit consecutively by 12gauge slugs, you wont feel it, shit just turns black.

[jobestudios]

damn

thats very scary

[AllenRPS13]

i feel really sorry for the officer... the vietnam guy is fucking crude
