Another cop shoots and kills a black man, this time during a stop for a broken tailight. If the NRA got its wish, and everyone carried cocealed weapons, would that mean anyone is fair game for the police to shoot anytime you move your hand towards your pockets? This man apparently told the officer he had a license to carry and that he had a gun, and when he reached for his wallet to to get his ID as the cop ordered, the cop killed him. All this over a broken tailight.

This incident doesn't highlight the problem with concealed carry, it highlights an officer that did the wrong thing. I am sure he will be punished legally, financially, and in the court of public opinion.
BTW, my concealed carry training told me to hand over my ID and CC Card first and THEN mention that I am carrying so that the LEO can direct my next move and avoid something like this (even so, the cop was wrong, IMO).

From what I understand is the man told the officer he had a gun first then went reaching around for his wallet after the cop told him not to move. The woman in the car didnt start recording until after the fact he was shot, hopefully they can get the whole video from the body cam to see what happened.

SSG James J. Palmer IV aka "JP4" - Rather he was a "law abiding" citizen or not, he didn't deserve to be KILLED!

Yes, let it play out more. Many, myself included, were quickly sucked into the lies surrounding Ferguson and Citizen Brown.
On its face it seems the officer panic-fired. That's poor training, lack of skills, fear. Racism has been assumed and added in by, once again, by the president.

I saw the video last night. This is why I will never, EVER, EVER carry in public. No matter what BS the NRA spews about an armed citizenry being a safe citizenry, that will never apply to men who look like the man in this video, or myself.
There was a story in the news just a couple of hours before this here in Raleigh of a man taking potshots at passing cars, then shooting at a Sheriff's Deputy who responded to the call. He was taken into custody alive.
I'll let you guess what color his skin wasn't.
