X isn’t a source. This is.

I get it, the part that is weird to me is americans having so much one-way courage that they needed to pull their guns on a man who is... on fire! Do they think bullets can kill fire? Do they not know how hard it is to threaten anyone when your ON FIRE?
Reading is fundamental. Where did it say that he was shot? I’m not defending the cop but you’d probably be confused also since it isn’t every day you run into a guy in an embassy driveway on fire. Ever heard of a human trait called compassion?
Not saying this is their reasoning, but if someone is on fire and running at you, a gun could kill them before they set you on fire. Also not saying this is their reasoning, but shooting someone who is suffering a fate they cannot undo could be considered merciful. So, shooting someone on fire could actually be effective.
You make a strong point, have an updoot
