Play silly games, win stupid prizes. Which one. The guy who was physically restrained or the guy driving his family. I'd say their role is minor and negligible. Neither seems to have been holding a gun when they were shot. I think poor training and procedures played a much more significant role, along with what appears to be a general disdain for human life among US Police officers

What you just wrote made me think though. The guy in the other one wasn't driving. If they were pulled over for a broken rear light they'd approach the driver.

Not on the BBC one I saw earlier you don't, it was edited and blurred out. They've now put the full version on but it's still blurred.

In both videos you cannot see what happened. The first man man appears to be restrained but they realise he has a gun and shoot him. Looks unnecessary to me but I expect they will claim that they followed procedure.

Looks unnecessary to me but I expect they will claim that they followed procedure. The second guy also had his seat belt on. If he was about to be aggressive it would be a lot easier and logical if he had unrestrained himself. Looks like a possible murder to me.
