From text accompanying this video elsewhere:
Here is a great example of an activist attorney who does what is required to bring the issues into public view where they can be debated and opinions can be formed. In this broadcast, a former police officer discusses how it is against NYPD policy to shoot at a moving vehicle unless the driver presents some other threat (e.g., a gun, bomb, etc.). This must be national policy as it relates to the car-as-deadly-weapon scenario. It must be one of the goals we strive to achieve. The video also includes images of Doug Zerby who was killed last week by police who, as in Zac's case, failed to announce their presence. They, as in case, came to the worst conclusion possible. The police concluded that the water hose nozzle Doug held was a gun. They apparently gave no warning before they shot. Doug apparently didn't even know they were there.
So, we unfortunately have to welcome Doug's family and friends. We all knew the day would come, as it will surely come again.
I hope the writer who penned this is wrong; unfortunately, s/he'll most likely be proven right sooner rather than later.
