I really do see this as a double standard on the part of the officers who de-escalated the situation and took him in without incident. We have all watched black individuals get shot in the back while running away or get shot with their hands up or get shot while an officer was literally sitting on his back. Officers often claim that they feared for their lives. Did they not fear for their lives here because this was a white guy? He had just killed people, regardless of his color. He was clearly a present danger. Did they assume or hope that he would not harm them because he was white? What do officers really fear? And why is it so often used as an excuse for killing black people.
Okay, let's get real here. The police manage to take MOST suspects into custody without killing anyone. The police execute 10 million arrests a year. Only 1000 involve the lethal use of force. And they shoot more white people than black people.
As I pointed out, Frank James and Darrell Brooks were black mass killers who were also taken into custody without killing them. They will answer to a jury of their peers, just like Gershon will. It's to the police department's credit that they can handle these situations as well as they do, 99.9% of the time.
Of the 1000 police shootings a year... most of them are ruled justified. Only a handful are the George Floyd or Laquan McDonald type where excessive force was used. (And in both of those cases, the officer was held accountable!)
