Let's say in the worst possible case in the LA shooting, let's say even though the guy has been saying "what did I do wrong?" and is pinned to the ground by two officers on top with a gun pointed point blank range at him, he somehow has a suicidal intention to pull his gun out of his pocket, it's loaded, he will flip the safety, use his one arm to overpower both arms & body leverage of the 2nd officer, and he will deliver a lethal shot at one of the apprehending officers. In that case, they still could easily have shot off his wrist, or his arm, given how they had him down. They didn't have to put a bullet through the middle of his chest.
At least that's how it looks now. It looks unreasonable. If more information comes out, that could change. But given the 'blue wall' and the fact that the evidence is in the hands of the very cops whose actions are under scrutiny, it's understandable that some people are angry and protesting based on the video.
