So as they are trained, you park down the road and try to sneak up on said person with a gun so that said person doesn't have time to shoot at you or time to shoot or take the other person involved in the domestic dispute hostage.

This is correct. The cop pressed the issue by keeping a frail elderly woman from closing the door to her own home. Chances are she initially believed that there was someone prowling outside her home and armed herself with that knife. We can only see the perspective of the cop. Though it appears that the area directly outside the front door lacked sufficient lighting and he was shining his light into her home. Plus, the inside of her home was poorly lit, and her eyes may have been more adjusted to the dark. It is likely from her perspective that she would be unable to see much aside from the flashlight shining towards her and hear the cop's voice. She might have doubted she was dealing with real police and became scared.

[@Snargfargle]

I was an Army medic and civilian paramedic for twenty years. I can immediately see a glaring problem with those cops at the door. A confused elderly woman is standing at the door but you have two cops yammering and a radio blasting in the background while another cop is talking to the woman, not addressing her concerns but trying to get her to turn more lights on. She tries to shut the door but he pushes it open. He then starts yammering about what she has in her hand so she shows him. I dont think she was attacking him but rather non-verbally saying "Here, take it if you are so concerned about what I've got in my hand!" I've dealt with dozens of patients with dementia and they tend to poke at you when trying to make a point. There was no need to shoot that old lady. Her feeble lunge could easily have been avoided or blocked. I would assume that cops are trained in basic self defense. And before someone says that I can't know how I would react because I've never been in that situation, I've been in exactly that situation. I've disarmed several people who tried to stab me and my fellow paramedics. Usually these were women who had been abused and woke up in the ambulance still thinking that they were being attacked. One of the first things I had to learn in civilian EMS was to search patients for weapons.

Knives are dangerous, so the law allows cops to shoot people who are threatening them with a knife, but this isn't a 20 year old mugger in a dark alley. This was an 81 year old woman with dementia, in her own house. Police abuse the rules to literally get away with murder. The cop should have stepped back to create distance but he was too interested in forcefully keeping the door open. Cops won't allow anyone to close their door until the cops are ready to leave. As soon as you open the door for a cop, you're in this situation where you can't close the door to end a consensual discussion without "assaulting a police officer". There is no consensual encounter with a cop. How can we respect a cop who felt he had to shoot an 81 year old woman because she had a knife? He couldn't easily disarm her? At worst, he could have Tasered her instead of shooting her.

Unless you are a specialized SWAT officer in a very specific situation, there’s no damn reason to be creeping around someone’s home or property in the dark unannounced! In that situation the homeowner should have every right to defend themselves.

[@markmaloney8154]

In the case of the man that was shot in his driveway: Whereas I agree that homeowners should have the right to defend themselves against threats, in this situation, the most prudent response would have been to call 911 and report someone lurking about their house in the middle of the night. Going outside in the dark to confront an unknown person (who could be armed) is not the brightest idea. However, in the case of the homeowner that saw someone lurking about, and since the cops didn't announce their presents, those police officers should have been charged with manslaughter or second-degree murder. Had they just driven up with their lights flashing, this could have been averted. The fault here was the police; they should have made their presence clearly known; the court was wrong to suggest that they weren't at fault...
