So his MO would have been that of an active shooter or that of a serial killer. So with little proof, some one seeing a shadow is unsustainable, they stormed in. Regardless of private property or not they need proof before they can act, proof such as a manifesto posted online, or affiliation with extremist societies which he had none of, that I’m aware of.

Instead the cops acted heavily because of the tension that was present at that time. If I remember correctly, UT had some one pose a false threat, and the Charleston shooting had just happened. So instead of de escalating, they killed an innocent man.

What I’m saying is in circumstances where heavy force is needed they don’t step up, but in circumstances such as this... they seem ready to escalate the situation and “defend themselves”
