Daniel Shaver did all that and still was murdered by the police. There are many more examples.

You dont have to follow unlawful orders but on the hand the Police can lie to you without any repercussions.

There are, at minimum, 50 million police-citizen encounters in the USA annually. Fewer than 1200 individuals are killed by police in a given year, on average. The odds of an unarmed American who does not pose a direct threat being shot by the police are fewer than one-in-a-million.

Does that justify the police killing people without any repercussions?
