He's not a negotiator, he's a police officer whose life WAS in danger! ANY time you walk up to regular traffic stop, your life IS in danger! Every day you put that uniform on your life is in danger. Any time you do NOT comply with authority, your life is in danger.

So, you are saying that if you threaten to shoot someone as a police, you have to shoot, to keep your credibility? Maybe you shouldn't be a police. Or if you fear your life being in a danger. This isn't about cleaning room, it is about someone's life, the only life he will get.
Police is supposed to take risks, and it means beyond than just being police. Using minimal force is the starting point in here (in my country); it doesn't mean shooting unarmed man 6 times. What the fuck is about the 6 times anyways? Isn't one time enough? So fucking messed up police culture around there.
I already suggested what the police should have done; step back. I mean literally. One step back. Instead he shot 6 times (or his friend too) a guy who was coming out of a car. As that was the situation; guy came out of his car. He even told he is going to come out of the car.
