Not blaming the guy at all but what seems to have happened is that he was shot because, I'm guessing, he tried to defend himself with his gun against a plain-clothed person approaching his car at 3am on the side of the highway. If people didn't think they needed to carry guns to protect themselves, theres a good chance that would not have happened. Of course, ultimately the officer is responsible for shooting the guy and, of course, none of it is on camera.
