Just like they did here. For all we know, there was a shootout that resulted in his death. We don't have enough info to know what actually happened on during the raid.

The fact that people in the US have more guns than the UK is a major reason there are more police shootings in the US. If more criminals possess a gun, of course it is more likely that they would start a shootout that results in death.

Who's living in a police state? Why are you assuming I'm from the US? Can you not make baseless assumptions about other people when arguing. I feel like you're not even talking to me but to an imaginary strawman.

Your last argument is literally useless since I also think the US is insane when it comes to police killings. I just don't assume everytime that it is simply police brutality because the US has more issues than just that. The amount of guns among the public also contribute to those stats.

"For all we know" is a cop out. You're giving american cops the benefit of the doubt when they have explicitly demonstrated that you should never ever do that.
