Not those guys fault. They were on target waiting for the okay to shoot for sure. Green light was way late. Possibly on purpose.
Is this your summation or is the news reporting this?
It amazes me how you guys ALL know how the media is complicit in 'misinformation' & 'social engineering' when it's something you're skeptical about. But when it affirms your beliefs, you never suspect that you're being misled.
SWAT teams & executive protection are usually under an ops order which spells out specifically when they can use force, including at the order of an incident commander, this is who signs off on the ops plan. Incident Command HEAVILY FROWNS upon 'independent action', meaning no individual member of the team should take action by themselves outside of the ops plan. But all have a caveat for 'appropriate initiative' or 'independent initiative' and this is the authorization to eliminate a threat if a window of opportunity presents itself.
