Baldwin believed and had reason to believe that the gun he was handed was a prop and not a functioning, loaded firearm.
Potter believed, and had reason to believe, that Wright was a violent criminal with illegal weapons in his possession. That her life, and the lives of the law abiding folks around her, were in danger.
Lethal danger.
Wright's warrant was for an illegal weapons charge. He dove for his car, the obvious place to keep a firearm. Potter shot him, as was reasonable. Wright chose being shot. Better if she'd pulled the taser, for sure. But that's not what happened. Wright put Potter in a split second decision situation and she messed up, a tiny bit.
Wright chose being shot by a cop. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. Darwin Award. Whatever.
Wright picked nearly everything that resulted in his death. There were many choices made and he made nearly all of them.
