your saying and i quote " this fuckface went after thier gun " we certainly didnt see that on video so unless you just pulled that out of your hat then its made up..
nobody is trying to presume the whole case from the clip we are talking about what anyone with eyes can see. there is no evidence of any sort posted so far that says he was fighting before what we saw on cam .
Nor that he was a gangbanger nor that he was even a convicted criminal..
What we do know is he was drinking beer on a corner , cops rolled up checked him for warrants then tried to arrest him for an outstanding warrant for possesing stolen property.. . something happened and we caught the end..

these will answer your questions...he wasn't some poor chap hanging around the corner drinking beer. he is a felon and known gang member, he ran from them, resisted arrest AND went after the gun. this is not some innocent guy hanging out and getting owned for no reason...he got what he deserved.
"The suspect's hand covered my partner's gun holster so I yelled at my partner to watch his gun. My partner responded by capping his gun and delivering a left elbow to the suspect's face causing the suspect to let go of him," the report said.
"A Superior Court commissioner who viewed the entire video nearly two months ago and heard the officers' testimony has found that their conduct was ''more than reasonable'' because Cardenas was resisting, the Los Angeles Times reported Friday."
"In the preliminary hearing held in the Cardenas case in September, the patrol officers seen in the video testified that Cardenas had lashed out at their hands and belt and apparently tried to reach for one of their guns. They recognised him as a member of the Gordon Street Locos gang and knew he was wanted for failing to appear on a warrant of receiving stolen property."
"In an arrest report obtained by the Associated Press, the officers said they tried to arrest Cardenas after spotting him on the sidewalk, but Cardenas ran."
" Vernon said Cardenas is a known gang member wanted on a felony warrant for receiving stolen property. In an arrest report, the officers said they tried to arrest Cardenas on a sidewalk."
