Isn't there a bit of game theory in play here?
Young Black Man finds himself in situation where he believe the police may kill him without justification or fear of retribution. Dice are rolled, this time Young Black Man happens to be carrying a gun. Young Black Man is further certain his possession of a gun will get him street executed. He calculates his only chance for survival for what could be for less than a traffic stop is to blast his way out and hope to escape.
Regardless of the game's relation to the specifics of this case, is it not reasonable that the police are creating a situation in which otherwise not-guilty folk are forced to make their street executions look legitimate by taking that chance at survival? Are we also not risking creating a generation of paranoid youth afraid of the police and thus more likely to try something drastic?
Merry Christmas
