If dude hade planned to shot the cop I doubt he would have announced he had a gun before reaching for it.
One reason I never have my wallet in my back pocket while driving (besides it being uncomfortable as hell) is so I can get it out easier if I need too. (not that that should matter at all in this case)
The worst thing about all of this is 1 cop in this case makes a bad decision but it will reflect badly on all the other officers and probly put them in slightly more danger of retaliation from others. News likes to make it out that cops are shooting anyone and everyone but the focus they put on it without any offsetting stories makes it sound like it happens every day.
To paraphrase other things on this board: So when will all the good cops start calling out all the bad apples?

Your anger and ego will always reveal your true self.
