The freeze response probably should've come before the gun came out.

As well, it's not some regular Joe-schmoe. It's (supposed to be) a trained professional who is (supposed to be) entrusted with a gun whose purpose is (supposed to be) to serve and protect the people. A trained professional is supposed to know what to do in a shocking situation beyond instinct. That's (supposed to be) the whole point of training them.

So sure, random Lemmy user might react the same way (though probably without drawing a gun). A police officer shouldn't.
