I wonder if he thought as he ran that these might be his last moments of life. And I wonder if the deputies were thinking that these might be the last moments of their careers.
What a strange world. I want to thank the deputies for both keeping us safe and keeping their guns holstered. It must have been terrifying for all involved. I wonder what the sentence will be. Probably it will be suspended.

Quite honestly, anyone who complains about what happens when the Leos have to take down a criminal should be required to go through the police training course on situational responses. There have been a few activists who took the course and came out with a completely different attitude. Their job is very difficult and decisions made in milliseconds have profound effects on peoples lives.Those who have not been in a similar situation have no clue regarding the stress and consequences of both action and inaction.
