If you pulled that stunt where I live, most likely you would not live to tell about it. Boise Police have a reputation. Just Google "Boise Police shootings" and you'll see for yourself. They don't mess around and I don't blame them one bit. Reaching for a gun to use against a police officer is enough for them to shoot you, let alone actually pointing it at them and pulling the trigger.
I think that they are both fortunate to be alive. The police officer is lucky the gun didn't fire, and the kid is lucky the officer showed restraint. He would have been well within reason to have shot the kid on the spot.
