Its not sad. They should have to plead to an extent. You cant just open fire on people which in the past police did with no consequences. But at the same time they shouldn't be backing them selves into a busy street . you can see the officer was ready to cry while pleading. Shot gun would have been great for that situationIt is a sad world that we live in. The officers had to plead over and over again while waiting to be attacked before opening fire.
