As for Keith Scott, he had a traumatic brain injury. His wife told the cops that before he was shot, as can be heard in her cell video of the incident.
I personally believe he probably did have a gun and may have been acting erratically, but he wasn't endangering anyone when approached and taken off-guard by plain-clothes cops.
I don't have an opinion as to whether it was a justifiable shooting or not yet; not enough evidence has been released. In either case, if his brain injury prevented him from understanding what was going on around him, I consider his death tragic and don't believe that he asked or deserved to be killed for 'not follwing PO orders' alone.
