"Why didn't the cops just walk up to him on the floor?!"
Yeah. Those fucking morons. How dare they not put themselves in potential firing path of the hotelroom door because some idiot was waving w gun outside a window months after the worst mass shooting ever... from a hotel window.
p.s. I actually agree that the officer didn't do a good job as deescalating the situation. Where I and other intelligent people disagree on is that it's not like the cops just decided to go kill someone that night. The suspect created that situation.
