That's a debate to have in a other thread or time. It's also an idea I don't support
Playing devil's advocate the idea would go like this...Once the police have decided to kill someone and not wish further carnage, the exact way they do it might vary per situation.
I don't want to derail this thread I was just answering your question about why the police have explosives, and also stating the military have used similar tactics at war.
they said they were negotiating with him at the time. It is entirely possible a phone was passed to him with the same bot that they used to kill him.

CNN just said he was on the phone, singing and laughing, asking someone "How many (police) did I get?" So, who was he talking to? Did they mean LEO or was he on the phone with someone else. If so, who? And if he was on the phone with the police, how did they get his number?

this post made me think of something.
OP you are 100% right, I watchd it go down and seen the same video you did etc and there was definity cover fire for the shooter, he was not alone.
My thought, is MAYBE, JUST MAYBE, they took the other shooters and dont want anyone to know they actualy have them.
Why? so they can extract information out of them without worrying about them having to go to court our be infornt of the camera any time soon.
Or maybe the pissed off cops beat them to death that night... but my first thought makes more sense AND falls in line with the day after threats that put then back on lock down, like the shooters organization knew they had them and made threats to attempt a "rescue"
Honestly, this makes a lot of sense to me
