cop shoots military man complying with cop's orders.....attempted murder, gross misconduct, conduct unbecoming an officer.

hell, I say put him in front of a military tribunal.

I'm a firm believer that gun control is hitting what you aim at. If you don't have the presence of mind to kill something you shoot at from point blank range, you have no business as a licensed gun owner. If you don't have the presence of mind to refrain from shooting a person following your orders as a licensed law enforcement officer (aka officer of the peace), you should have your badge stripped of you.

Attempter murder of federal employee/agent. Life without parole. No plausible excuse with the taping of it. The only reason I would say it wasn't attempted murder is that from that range, the officer should have had no problems killing the man. So part of me thinks that it should be assault with a deadly weapon, attempted manslaughter (due to the officer's pisspoor aim from that distance), with 25 to life in the plea.
