The cop in Wisconsin or where ever it was, obviously over reacted and had bad training. Unfortunately, the only thing the black guy could have done differently was, tell the cop he had a gun and a license to carry *before* reaching for his wallet, which the cop had asked for. Reaching for your wallet while saying "I have a gun" was not smart. But the cop gave conflicting instructions and over reacted. Bad training on his part! No racism here. A tragic incident. Baton Rouge is a different story. The guy had threatened a store owner with a gun earlier or may have just shown the store owner his gun. Police were aware he may be armed. They were in a position to taser the guy if they felt threatened. As I recall, the guy resisted arrest and a take down ensued.They were way too quick to shoot this guy from what I've seen so far. The police pulled a gun from his pocket which they undoubtedly will say he was reaching for. I don't think his shooting was justified either.
