Never shoot at a cop. That likely results in the citizen being shot. Research the laws of your state on the justifiable use of force. I'll state that all a cop has to do is articulate that he was in the process of arresting you and you will loose every time.
LE don't give a rip about a citizen's right to defend themselves if the citizen claims they were defending themselves from a cop. Even if the citizen had ironclad justification, proved on the spot. LE will instinctively side with the cop regardless of the obvious misdeed of a cop, happens almost all of the time. The citizen has no advocate until they get in front of a judge. LE investigates themselves and that is a conflict of interest.
You want these outrageous situations, as rare as they really are, to stop? Remove QI and have a cop defend himself in a courtroom just as a citizen must do.
No QI, better LE.
