All these people saying "why didn't they use a taser" should be forced to watch a couple of hours of body cam footage.
Tasers are a joke on anybody but people who are already fairly calm: it's hard to hit a moving target, clothes can block them, you only got one shot and people on drugs or adrenaline barely feel them and keep going.
Same with the whole "shoot them in the legs" and "why did they shoot him 10 times". It's hard to hit a moving target and you've only got a second or so until the attacker closes the distance.
No, the problem with a leg shot is that it's still a kill shot.
The idiots who say to shoot them in the legs don't realize that if you hit a large area around the thigh the person is probably going to bleed out.
If you hit the calves depending on the type of bullet, where it hits, etc, it might not do a damn thing to stop the person.
These niggers play too many video games and think you can just aim assist the legs for a cripple debuff or some shit.
