They're calling the Alanta shooting Murder.

What would they call it if he got the cops gun instead, and killed the cop 馃

Surely murder implies planning or intent, rather than manslaughter which doesn't.
In this case the guy was violent, had been trying to (or did) get the cop's Taser and was a threat. It's not like the cops opened fire on a Gospel choir.
I thought it was Europe that went mad when a cop killed someone, not the US.
