I think you will find the cop jumped out towards the path of the truck. Go thru it frame by frame. Pretty obvious.
Seriously, you are as much a loon as Lavoy.

No where did I say an officer shouldn't jump towards the path of a vehicle.
I only stated the facts of what happened in the vid.
Relax, boys.

Not much about me, Fritz! This story prompted me to post, on this particular topic, for variety of reasons. If you had seen my original post, you probably would would see why, in part, plus I'd traveled and plant to travel more around these parts of OR and some time before almost bought a house out there. Certainly wouldn't want some looneys to come and run things, wherever I am, I had been personally terrorized by such types in the past, having lived in Deep South as well.
That cop was pretty damn brave, I think, unlike the Banjo boys.

Finicum DROVE OFF THE ROAD and almost hit the guy.
He had no regard for anyone at any time but for himself. The cops would have bee justified in shooting him before he got out of the car.

It is sad about someone dieing because there cause is bullsh#t. He obviously led an ok life, 11 kids. Makes you wonder WTF is wrong with someone so twisted in the head to believe in their cause.
He deserved what he got, but its still sad.

Thanks Lorenzo, but I want to add my thoughts to your post.
Finicum DROVE OFF THE ROAD and almost hit the guy.
He drove off the road At a high rate of speed, intending to cut around the roadblock and keep going! The now-expired desert-dweller, Mr. Finicum didn't know about what driving into deep snow does to a speeding vehicle.

L+B: i don't disagree [and it doesn't appear monolith does either] with anything you guys are writing [except what you're reading into what monolith wrote]
to be clear: a nutjub was driving towards a cop car at a high rate of speed after recklessly taking off from a police pull over, a cop likely tried to run/dive out of the way of the nutjob, the nutjob swerved and almost ran him over as the cop ran in the direction that the nut job swerved.
nutjob is completely at fault at every stage of the game, and then continued nutjobbery into getting himself shot...
to be honest, i have absolutely no idea why this conversation is happening at all, when all of us agree... [at least i think we do...]
now that we've got that clear hahaha i'm curious if you could rephrase this mr. B: "You have a problem in thinking what you post is reality based on presumption."
it sounds interesting and you might even be correct... but i've reread it half a dozen times now and can't say i understand exactly what you're trying to say...

The short version is that there is no excuse or mitigating circumstance available for the moron who fulfilled his sense of manifest destiny...
Yes, but they will make that dipshit a martyr anyway.

Wow Jim, overreact much?
Nobody here is trying to impune the officers Jim. We're pointing out something odd we saw on a video. Nothing more than that.
I respect these officers for stopping the bad guys. I'm not happy about the death, but he brought it on himself.
Your reaction illustrates why many of us do not care to participate in these discussions. Please tone it down a bit.

At least he walked away from the car before committing suicide by cop. Probably saved the rest of the folks in the car.

The Schofield Kid: [after killing a man for the first time] It don't seem real... how he ain't gonna never breathe again, ever... how he's dead. And the other one too. All on account of pulling a trigger.
Will Munny: It's a hell of a thing, killing a man. Take away all he's got and all he's ever gonna have.
The Schofield Kid: Yeah, well, I guess they had it coming.
Will Munny: We all got it coming, kid.
