What was supposed to happen? Stand there and politely ask her to stop knifing the other person? Get in a fistfight with someone who has a knife and hope she only cuts up your arms and doesn't get you in the throat or eyes?

She didn't "have" to die. You don't shoot to kill. You shoot to stop the aggression. You aim for the center of mass because Hollywood movies aren't real and pistols are not precision implements. That someone happens to die is unfortunate, but not necessarily a given. People survive being shot much more often than not. Did the police officer walk over and plug her half a dozen more times once she was motionless on the ground to make sure? There's a wide difference between stopping aggression and purposely killing someone.

Exactly, the point was to stop the threat, not to kill. If he aims for the legs, arms, or head, he will likely miss or hit a bystander or the victim herself. This idea that cops are on some murderous quest is ridiculous.

I dont want a person with 2-4 weeks of training shooting in my direction to save me, Id rather I got stabbed than accidentaly shot.

the girl in the pink track suit was incredibly lucky she is not also dead of gunshot wounds.

Cops shouldn't be thought of as super human guardians that are there to protect us from danger.

That's just not what their role is or should be.

If a 16 year old is knifing people, her parents and everyone genetically related to her need to be removed from society and banned from reproducing. We need to stop this shit BIGLY

at that range with a 9mm it was easya s fuck the other girl would had got hit by the bullet if they exit .
most people dont realize aimin to head arms fast as fuck as show in movies isnt real, when u get proper fire arms trainin they always train u to aim for the body mass aka chest . no fancy ehadshots or anything else .
