1. If cops roll up on your house tonight and order you out of the house. Would you do it?

Nope, after the last few incidents, I have decided that if possible I will lay down spread eagle and lie still until I'm taken into custody... Bad things ALWAYS seem to happen when multiple officers are present and screaming often conflicting orders at someone. (one always yells don't move while other(s) yell to lay down, approach, etc.) so there is always one who has a "reason" to shoot.

I doubt they will fire on a motionless body face down, even if I disregard the order to come to them.

What an awful case... I hope the swatter faces manslaughter or worse. The fact that the police were on scene because of a fake swatting call, doesn't mean they didn't mess up either. I hate to armchair QB but from the footage I saw, it sure looked like he went from hands up to shading his eyes with one hand...

I hope the family can find peace.
