Tony "Money" Carvallo - Moneykxe - 10-09-2021
Name of Character: Tony "Money" Carvallo
SteamID : STEAM_0:0:426599120
Date of PK: 10/9/2021
Reason for PK: Failing to kill a police officer, resisting with violence
Why should you be unPK'd?: 1 the police was meta-gaming or other wise just unrealistic, it might be a small thing that most people might do but, the police had his back turned to me, and right when i took my shotgun out he shot me, there's no way that he would know that i took my shotgun out unless if he had eyes on the back of his head. second off he wasn't even allowed to ask for a gun license, he kept on getting in my face so i threatened him, you cant randomly ask for a gun license just because i have one on my back. and he targeted me because i was the one talking the most.
If possible please provide video evidence or photo evidence if PK does not follow the guidelines: the cop should have the video, i think his names dridds or something like that.

First off police are allowed to ask for your gun license until you can prove that it is legal which it states in the rules here
"If a weapon is drawn, the police have the right to detain you until they confirm that the weapon is legal, then they have to let you go. "
In your situation you had a double barrel on your back, and were asked for a license you responded with " You wanna keep talking and get smacked" Which is threatening a government official and also refusing to show your license . So the cop then aimed a gun at you and told you to get on the wall, which you did, then mid-way through getting restrained you pulled out your shotgun ignoring the fact the police were arresting you, and initiated a violent confrontation, from the moment you pulled out the shotgun while being restrained you had started a violent confrontation with the cops, and tried to kill the Captain, but you were then killed in one shot.
Now to explain the unrealistic part you brought up
Well you could argue the fact you were not under FearRP per this rule,
"If the person with the weapon puts it away or turns his line of sight (Meaning the user has turned completely away and is not even slightly facing you. Usually an angle of larger than 90 degrees), fearRP becomes null and you may take the window of opportunity to retaliate with little to no risk. (Does not apply if multiple weapons are pointed at you)"
as the cop was not facing you with his gun, but none of the less you did intentionally pull out your shotgun and attempt to kill a police officer starting a violent confrontation with them, in my discretion pulling out a gun when two cops are trying to arrest you, and halfway through restraining you decide to pull out your shotgun and initiate a violent confrontation with the cops would also fall under this rule
"Acting in complete disregard for your life and being killed can be a PK at staff's discretion." In my discretion as you clearly showed no regard for your life by pulling out a shotgun while being restrained by a cop, and attempted to initiate a gunfight and kill them.
Here are the logs from start to finish of your situation regarding the gunfight with the cop

Hello,
So as Baldrick stated above, the police are allowed to stop you, if you are carrying a weapon, and ask for your licence, so this is not especially relevant to this PK. On top of this, if you watch the video, you were in his field of view, so he did not "metagame" the sound of the shotgun equipping. I have been told that the reason for this PK was initiating an armed conflict with the Police, and no value for life.
Due to the evidence from the video, I think both of these reasons stick fairly easily.
Your appeal has been reviewed and denied.
We have determined this PK to be reasonable and/or justified.
You may not re-appeal this PK.
