Always has, in fact there’s a ton of controversy in places like where I live that made laws that high-speed chases for most crimes were not allowed as well as shootouts in public for most crimes if the criminal doesn’t have a gun, since they kill bystanders more often than catch criminals with both of those. But the police unions and NRA have stirred up the conservatives against nonviolent capture.

This guy probably wouldn’t have hurt anyone if he hadn’t been fleeing. Sounds like he was just trying to avoid a DUI and they could have just took his license plate number and gone to his house/workplace to pick him up.
