Why oh why am I supposed to feel sorry for yet another delinquent who resists arrest and get shot?
Let's go through the chain of events leading up to his shooting:
1. loud music disturbs the neighbor - if he simply kept the volume at normal levels there would have been no call in the first place
2. gets drunk 5x the legal limit to drive which is VERY drunk and impairs judgment
3. carries a gun while drunk out of his mind. I don't know about you, but if you plan on getting drunk better put any weapons away first, if you're too drunk to drive you're too drunk to carry weapons including small sharp objects like scissors
4. points the weapon at the officers
5. suspiciously closes the garage door
If he stopped before ANY of the first 4 stages, chances are he'd still be alive. This is not systemic police brutality or system racism, it's systemic stupidity.
Police then shoot through the garage door.
I don't know if that's the best outcome, but it is justifiable homicide in self-defense. Don't go around threatening to shoot cops for fuck's sake.

However, when law enforcement arrives at your home doing lawful duty and you're confronted with law enforcement and they give you an order to drop that gun, the last thing anyone should do is raise that gun," said Sheriff Mascara.
