Do you have verified credentials to back-up knowledge on what other people think?
If not, maybe linking a study on what people think about this case or situation would suffice.
^bbm sbm. Not presuming to speak for anyone else here, just my thoughts.
Mr. Brown's aunt, w whom he recently lived, commented to wtvr.*
"
She was upset about what happened, but not surprised."
"She said her nephew vowed his prison days were over."
"He said he would never go back to prison again," she said. "He would fight it out with them." bbm
Personally I don't always accept a person's stmts about her dead or still-living relative (usu accolades and glowing praises) as the absolute, ultimate truth, but here his aunt seems to have been candid in revealing characteristics that law abiding ppl would find, uh, well, hmm ... unflattering. Or maybe she has no warm feelings for him and is exaggerating or not being truthful. IDK.
Assuming her stmt is truthful, seems, it is a
better predictor of this particular man's predisposition to be violent toward LEOs than a study would be, imo.
Should LEOs azz-ume everyone they approach
is a bomb w fuse burning, ready to violently attack LEOs?
IDTS, but I understand, before or during encounters, why LEOs
may approach as though a person
may be a bomb w fuse burning.
All JM2cts.

"He had a lot of anger about the police in the past," she said. "He pretty much thought he wanted to be infamous . . . in terms of having a showdown.
