It depends on what gets transferred into long term memory. After a fight or flight scenario, you can actually experience false memories or have gaps in your memory because your brain discards any info it doesn't think is necessary to survival. That's why it is important you say as little as possible, get an attorney, and have the time to process what really happened vs. what did not. Talking with the police in an interrogation room immediately after a self defense shooting is not a smart idea.

When the police shoot a person, there’s an investigation first before an arrest. When you defend yourself, you’re arrested and jailed until an investigation is done. It needs to be the same for both.
@SovietWinnieThePoo

That’s a bit of a slippery slope though. An overwhelming majority of shootings (not police related) are murder, and not self defense. Are we going to let a murderer stay on the streets until the investigation is done properly? Also, in cases like this gentleman’s, the cop has no idea what is going on other then the fact that there was a shoot out and someone is lying there bleeding out. Of course, nothing is black and white, and you have to work with the evidence at hand.

The firearm in your hands when the responding officers arrive can go wrong for anyone no matter the color of the skin. It is just common sense to not have one in your hands when the police show up. They get a radio call involving shots fired and they don't know who the victims is. I've been there and as the officers arrived to take control of multiple suspects, I quickly holster mine and put my hands up. You should be more afraid of an armed citizen arriving to the scene and not knowing what just occurred, and decides to be a hero. There the skin color will most likely come into play. So if the danger is over, holster up and cover it. And enjoy your fine work man. Don't feel bad. Feel grateful that you trained for a day you hope never comes. Well it did and it may come again. May that experience never happen again but hopefully it made you stronger, especially your mind. What else can I say.

I was serving a warrant as a bounty hunter one night and was at the suspect's grandmothers house. She refused to open the door and called the police and told them someone was breaking into her house. I always called the police and told them where i would be working on a case but this night i was supporting another bounty hunter on this case. I asked if he had called it in and he said he had, but he had not. I was in the backyard with a sawed off 12 gauge shotgun and my handgun in a holster on my hip. The police came up the alley so i walked to the back fence and waived at them. They shone their spotlight on me and told me to put the shotgun on the ground. I did so with no suspicious moves. They came up i explained who i was and what we were doing. The officer told me my partner had not called it in and the grandmother had called it in as a home invasion. The suspect was not even there that night and that was the last time i worked with that bounty hunter. He could have gotten me killed that night.

Outstanding work young man. Your living proof of why good training is a must have if you've made the decision to keep and carry a weapon for protection. God was with you at that hour. It's unfortunate that your young son was also involved, but I'm sure your the type of Father that will get him to understand what happened and why. I'm also sure that you'll raise him up to be a fine young man as are you. Hot work there son, very glad you survived. I spent 38 years in law enforcement and was involved in 4 gun fights. Both my Marine Corps and LAPD training are some of the best available. They put you in the mindset and teach you the skills needed until they become reflexes. It's so that no rational man or woman wants to injur or kill another human, but that's up to them, they make a poor choice and end up shoot and often killed as a result. Incidents such as this are like a car accident, they are over just like that. That's why it's SOOO important to train regularly. Mike I'm glad you interaction with CPD went well. CPD is one of the most professional law enforcement departments in America. As with any Police departments these things can unfortunately go sideways if you don't fallow a simple protocol when they first arrive. From experience I can tell you that the information we receive is either very basic to dangerously incomplete. All we normally know is a location and a shooting just occurred. That's why at the point you hear the responding units arrive re holster your weapon and put your hands up and in plain view and DON'T MOVE UNTIL TOLD TO DO SO. I can't stress that enough. I understand your probably going to be in some degree of shock and confusion. Tell the officers that you were just attacked and need their help. Tell them you have a weapon and where it is. They will remove it and put you in cuffs normally. At this point your being detained put normally not under arrest. You will be advised of your rights, make only the very basic statements that you were attacked and forced to defend yourself. Point out any whiteness and any physical evidence that you can see. After that request medical attention whether you believe you injured or not. Make no detailed statements until you have an attorney present. If your arrested don't panic, make no statements to anyone you might be locked up with or to the C.O.'s You'll have your day in court and this will all get straightened out then. Believe me when I tell you it's the same way for a Cop. We potentially have to sweat a Grand Jury if it goes that far just like anyone else.

Loved the video until he brought up skin color. All this cop came up and by the grace of god everything went well. I loved hearing that he protected his son and took down the threat. But the only person trying to kill you that day was a gang member not the police.

Well I’m glad he and his son are ok, but I already knew to stay out of alleys in Chicago lol. I wouldn’t go to a training in Chicago.

Sounds like that's where he parks for his residence. Also, I believe he said he was returning from training in St. Louis.

@@jonathanyoung7763 I admit I didn't state that clearly. The alley is where he parks for his residence in Chicago. He was returning to his residence in Chicago from training in St. Louis is how I understood it. My point is he had attended training in St. Louis and was returning to his home in Chicago. He wasn't just randomly in an alley and the training wasn't in Chicago like you seem to be hinting at with your original comment.

@@aaronkorsmo I see, I’ll just assume you’re correct because that makes sense. But I stand by my sentiment, I wouldn’t live in Chicago much less park or even be in an alley in Chicago, and I wouldn’t go to a training in Chicago or St. Louis lol. I try to avoid big cities at ALL costs. I don’t mean it’s his fault, but I would be lying if I said he took every precaution and preparation to protect himself and his family. And I’m not just virtue signaling, I use to live in California. I now live way out in rural Texas where the nearest 2 cities have a population well under 1000 people. And you may be able to guess this, but we’ve never had an issue with anyone pulling a gun on us.

Lived in Brooklyn, NYC, I saw young men throwing gang signs at other young men, and if the second young man did not recognize the gang sign and throw it back, it was assumed that he was a member of an opposing gang, and attacked. They left me alone because I am a 63 year old lady.

God bless this man and his boy. If it were me and my son no questions asked the gunman is dying that day. I don't aim to kill a man when I strap that gun on everyday but my little boy is first and foremost to me and I'm doing what needs done. Beyond all that we don't have a justice system we have a LEGAL system. If he had lived he'd be back on the streets before long thanks to those Chicago DAs
