Yeah putting hands on that gun could have been argued as a lethal Force situation. They teach in the academy that no one touches your gun.
watching the gif again, the cop sees the guy coming in, has a lot of time to assess the threat level, and has a ton of backup close at hand. It also doesn't look like much else is happening nearby.
Otherwise, I think the odds of that fuckwit catching a bullet would be way higher.
Looks like the cop is rocking some sort of less-lethal firearm, too, which lowers the stakes marginally.
