Black drunk driver who fell asleep in the Wendy's driver through shot and killed by cop

So the timing of this is bad, but was the action?

Rioters burn down the Wendy's because they "ordered the execution" of Rashard Brooks

First, let's be clear here. This was not an unarmed person shot by the cops. This was a guy who while resisting legitimate arrest started a physical altercation where he took a taser gun from a cop, started to run away, and then turned around and aimed the gun back at the cop chasing him. This was all captured on a variety of video, including body cam. In any other time, with any other suspect, this would have been considered 100% justified police shooting.

No questions asked.

We cannot assume that in this sort of situation that either cop knew exactly what sort of weapon was taken from them in the scuffle, nor could they be sure that Brooks didn't have another weapon on him at the time. While it seems logical in hindsight to just assume that it was the taser gun that the drunken suspect was pointing at them, are cops now required to forfeit their own lives in order to error on the side of caution?

Moreover, I am not sure of the police protocol in this situation, but I am fairly certain that if a cop is imminently threatened with any sort of weapon (gun, taser, knife, machete, crossbow, etc) that they are allowed to shoot to protect themselves, even if the weapon may not be lethal. Who's to say what a criminal suspect might do if they incapacitated a cop with a taser. The cop would be helpless to prevent other weapons he has to be taken and used.

You point a weapon at a cop with intent to use it, I would offer that you should expect to be shot for those efforts.  

Let's also keep in mind that hundreds of cops have been injured, dozens seriously during these riots. Two police officers have lost their own lives in these riots. Rioters and other BLM activists have declared war on the US police force and in Seattle (Chaz) and other places are literally throwing homemade explosives and setting up IUD explosives to injure or kill cops on purpose. 

If not for these recent actions, whose to say that this particular cop might have chosen differently? Then again, whose to say that he should have. The bigger problem here is that this isn't cut and dried like George Floyd. Many people are going to see this as a legitimate police protective measure. Part of what makes these protests so supported is that universal belief that Derek Chauvin was not acting with any good faith when George Floyd was killed. I doubt this one will get that same sort of universal support.

Lastly, we now have protesters burning down a Wendy's because they called the police on a drunk man who fell asleep in their drive through. Since when is it some sort of sin or problem for an establishment like Wendy's to report this sort of behavior to the police? To suggest that the employee who called the police is responsible for the death is asinine to say the least. This sort of "logic" is going to end up losing even more people who currently support this cause.
