Wow. So, the BG has a blue Nissan Titan and they shoot up a Toyota with two women in it nearly killing the women. Then some other officers shoot up a black Honda truck? I'm willing to bet that neither occupants did anything threatening towards the officers and that none of the officers will face disciplinary actions.

I disagree on that. SO CAL is different then TX. They are in a "Heap" of trouble if the occupants did nothing to cause them to fire.

No way near condoning, shoot first, ask questions later, but...imagine reading a manifesto from some nut job who's coming to kill you and your fellow officers. Bet there are a few "jumpy" LEO's out there. I hope they use wise judgement and only kill the BG.

This is the obvious consequence of militarizing the police. They change from protect and serve to arrest and shoot.

The story I read said the two women were delivering newspapers.

Stay inside and lock your doors so the POLICE don't shoot you!

Possibly, but I have seen a lot of smart folks, properly trained, make many critical mistakes. Either the training didn't stick, or more likely gross errors in judgement. MHO

So, either lack of training or didn't possess critical judgement skills to be a cop to begin with.
