But cops are being "trained" to shoot to KILL.

Bottom line is...the guy was unarmed. The cop should be able to deal with him without murdering him...unless the guy gets the cop down on the ground and goes for the cops weapon.

Are all these cops unable to handle what a bouncer at a bar handles on a nightly basis?
Obviously not. Cops aren't trained fighters tipping the scale at 300 pounds. Furthermore, bouncers do not have firearms and other weapons on them which others will make a move for in a struggle, which is a serious concern in any confrontation where the suspect is being belligerent and aggressive or resisting.
