Dallas Police Department released a video from a police cruiser concerning a shooting that took place on September 16. The night of the incident, officer Rene Villanueva pulled over a hit and run suspect and they had a quick struggle, which ended in Villanueva fatally shooting the suspect. After criticism from the suspect's family and local civil rights groups, Dallas Police Chief David Kunkle decided to release the video. Villanueva has been placed on restrictive duty.

He wants justice for his brother. I believe he has received it.

So help me here:
A big guy punches you in the head, whether it's as you claim three times or only a provable once on tape. Your job is to somehow enforce control over the situation with the guy that has, to your knowledge, two infractions and has now been punching you, an obvious officer of the law and armed person.
Would you call for counseling? Maybe order a pizza and offer him a beer? It was a pretty quick altercation, sure, but for crying out loud! It's a physical altercation with an armed police officer. He wouldn't act that way with a German Shepherd bacause the dog doesn't have a job to lose.
These things confuse me.

Try using PCP - That seems to make these sorts of things make sense.
