I'm not totally up on what happened there, and it seems confirmed that there was a knife involved, but how many times do you shoot a man in the back for that?
I have to say that it sounds excessive force. And I think he just died.
A violent criminal is wanted for rape. He's at the home of the alleged victim and he has a knife. He is resisting arrest. Your taser fails to stop him.
You shoot him until he stops resisting arrest.
Here's a story of a bank robber that took 14 .45 ACP rounds and didn't stop until the cop SHOT HIM THREE TIMES IN THE HEAD.
Holy shit.
You can do it in one of your crit chance is high enough
Until the threat ends. Sometimes people drop from a pellet gun ricochet. Sometimes they don't drop the RPG until the third burst of .50 rips through them after the JDAM proved ineffective.
Remember that video that was posted the other day from Elijah Schaffer on Twitter where a rioter pulled a gun from his pocket, aimed it at the camera, pulled the trigger (unloaded), and walked off?
That video was 3 seconds long. That's how fast it happens. These officers need to be cognizant of that at all times. That is why following directions is so important.
That moment they lost sight of his hands -- because remember, he's reaching in a car -- they had to assume the worst to protect themselves. It's not a risk they should be forced to take either. Officer's are trained to eliminate a threat to their life.
And that's why Malice Green got shot in my earlier story. It wasn't what he had in his hands, it was that he hid them. But that point, of course, got lost in the media noise. And that happened like a million years ago, the same shit is still happening. I guess blacks are just dumber than dogs, and can't learn, and it'll take 'em a few more generations to evolve to the point where they can, but that takes selection. As for the media, they've always been a bit of a cuntish lot. Fifth estate my ass, more like fifth columnists.
as many as it takes that he stops presenting an active threat.
Maybe you should get yourself "totally up on what happened there" before you start spouting dumbfuck ideas about it.
