    The article didn't mention drawing guns on him. Bodycam happens like how you see it in the movies.

    You assume that whenever police are involved with a suspicious person report, but is that the only way?

    I feel deeply for cops who fall or are injured in the line of duty, but I don't want to live in fear with that "one wrong move" or "one bad cop" situation either. Not many free industrialized countries deal with that crap.

    The gun was unholstered as the cops confronted Coogler, but it was never aimed at him. I think it's fair for the cops to have their guns at the ready when initiating contact with a suspected bank robber. The cop holstered his weapon as soon as Coogler put his hands behind his back.

    They cancelled themselves years ago, I don't know a single person who does business with BOA.
