....usually a policeman would have shot with gun drawn and the perp going for the victim. But Dem policy has undoubtedly undermined the confidence of police in SF as elsewhere. They know that they no longer have the govt behind their back. They know that not only can they be sued agressively (a Dem pushed reality) as well as prosecuted for a hate crime if they fire that weapon regardless of how good their intention.. So, it looks like they hesitated as they processed it all. A lifetime of policy pushing influencing a split second decision that had huge implications for him.
