“Hands Up, Don’t Shoot” Activist Shoots Unarmed Man
A high-profile community organizer liberal named Jarrett Maupin has been very critical of law enforcement agencies around the country. He’s responsible for leading protests and marches on the Phoenix Police headquarters after officers shot an unarmed man who reportedly fought with them.
Have you ever wondered what would happen if an anti-police activist had to wear a badge and be put in a life or death situation?
Here’s your answer: Maupin agreed to go through a force on force training. He was confronted with three different scenarios, in which he had to decide at a moment’s notice whether to shoot, or not to shoot.
From local Fox affiliate in Phoenix:
Scenario one is a call of a man casing cars in a parking lot. Maupin approached the man and started asking questions. The suspect in the drill shot Maupin, who was asking him what kind of car he drove. It happens that fast.
FOX 10 asked him when he thought it was time for him to address the scenario with the use of force. “When he came to the back of the vehicle and started hiding, I could sense something was wrong,” said Jarrett Maupin.
Scenario two is a call of two men fighting. “What’s going on today gentlemen, what are you doing?” he said. He fired at the suspect in the scenario.
FOX 10 asked him why he shot the suspect. “Hey, he rushed me… I shot because he was in that zone, I didn’t see him armed, he came clearly to do some harm to my person,” said Maupin. “It’s hard to make that call; it shakes you up.”
The “hands up, don’t shoot” activist shot an unarmed man. “Yes my attitude has changed, this happens in 10-15 seconds. People need to comply for their own sake,” Maupin concluded.
