That's what this Phoenix, AZ activist thought, too. It's why he was one of the loudest anti-police voices in the city--and it's why he was offered a chance to experience what it's really like for police officers in those life-and-death moments.
So what happened when he was facing the same situation that officers face on a daily basis? See for yourself:
