I think it boils down to last defense and first defense. If you are scared or not totally sure of what you can and can't handle then deadly force is first if you are sure of your self but not overly confident then deadly force might come last defense

There is a thing called use of force chart that tells a cop what level of force he or she can use. It tells you when to use deadly force. Deadly force also has a definition. Cops are not trained to shoot to kill. They are trained to stop the threat. That is one reason cops are not being charged in a crime for what a lot of civilians call an abuse of force. Deadly force is not defined by the weapon or item or tool of choice. It is defined by the damage that can be done.

Talking about shot placement is crazy. First officers are trained to shoot center mass. officers can not decid if anyone is dead or decide if someone is mental. Cops train in shooting simulators and it it is very hard to hit small targets, such as knees, crotches, elbows, etc.

Chances are a cop standing 21st from you with a knife is not running at you with unknown intentions. That was a pretty poorly thought out response. If your walking down the street and a thug/unknown individual is coming at you from 21ft better hope your armed and can draw quick enough to shoot before your the one in the obituaries
He said 21 feet with a weapon so you know any cops with out weapons your response was pretty poor thought out

I know some older cops are decent people but city/county cops by in large are just glorified firefighters. Dorks from high school. Every cop I have ever met does nothing but brag about hurting people when you get to know them. I just read a comment that said something about crystals degree and avocation not being good enough to pass judgement on barney fife. that kinda attitude is exactly why most people don't like cops.I can tell you have a horrible attitude. Sometimes a person can get tunnel vision when they are to close to the situation and someone not as experienced at fbi stuff but more objective can see the situation more clearly.I'm sure screw driver guy made many bad choices in his life leading him to that point but there are an awful lot of cops that do not have any sense what so ever.

I dont think i would have done what he did though it was real crappy not to help him. he should be fired for that. especially the comment about him still being alive.
