Alright, how fast before someone comments defending the cop?

@1: The motorcyclist should not have been afraid at all...the detective used proper trigger discipline for the entire encounter.

/s

Keep in mind that IT dudes who ride bikes and blog/vlog about it are a dime a dozen. This police encounter is a big story. We want to know more about it.

Why he rides, what made him choose an R1 over a GSX-R, what video game consoles he owns, how many years he's been into anime, does he vape every day or only every once in a while, will he ever furnish all of his apartment, or hang anything on a wall, etc., can be left to the imagination.

I'm glad he used proper trigger discipline, but you should never point a gun at something you are not ok with destroying. The motorcyclist had every reason to be afraid given that the cop apparently thought that he might need to be shooting him soon. Also he didn't know the guy was a cop at first.

Dear cops, report the bad cops or you are one. I'm sick of excuses.

How long before we we find out the motorcyclist is a thug...oh wait he's white.

Both the anonymous armed assailant and the victim are fortunate that there was no attempt at self-defense.

Where are all these "good guys with guns" i keep hearing about?
They'd put a stop to this nonsense, PDQ.
