It's BS. If someone startles me by yankin open my door like he did I'd be inclined to take that as a threat! !! But then again I ALWAYS have my doors locked while in the car (it's automatic)...

With Liberty comes a grave amount of responsibility.
Why do grown men play with toy guns?
Why would a guy decide to clean/upgrade/play with his toy gun (that looks exactly like a real gun) at 3 in the morning, parked in front of a car wash?
You know, not for nothing, but, we are going backwards here. All of us. With the ever increasing militarization and paranoization (word?) of law enforcement agencies, why do seemingly intelligent people make stupid decisions?
You will argue that he was just cleaning his toy gun. You'll argue that he even had the right to clean a real gun in the same situation. I'll argue that, the reason I don't clean my guns in front of a car wash, at three in the morning, in a parked car, is because I know that this time and place is an inappropriate time and place to perform such tasks.
The cop is wrong. No doubt. But, honestly, so is the knucklehead that got himself shot for making a dumb decision.
I urge all that want to defend the right to clean your toy gun, in the middle of the night, in a parked car, in front of a car wash, to stage a protest. Go ahead. I am sure your families will be so happy when they receive the settlement check.

Or just maybe the cop knew the guy, and maybe had a "business" arrangement with him. And maybe things went sour. Dead former business partners tell no tales.
seems to be a lot of gang activity there on busy nights.
