You guys that "are not defending the cop, but are defending him".

If any ANY civilian had told a cop that they should shoot them, should have shot them, or would shoot them, they would be in prison for a very very long time. I was in jail with a guy that had been there for 6 months because he said "someone should blow this place up" talking about a place he worked at. They pressed charges of terroristic threats against him.

How come because a Police Officer did it people are just asking for the loss of his job? I think he should go to jail at least.

That part is really out of line, I hope he loses his job for that.

A very bad example by both officers-the one doing the talking and the one on the side lines. I'm sure if the officer had shot the guy-all would've band together and lied till there is no end.

Not realistic as when you are out on the road you are 'it' and have to be able to take care of yourself.
