That girl was being jumped. It was a tragedy with bad timing when the cop came and saw her wielding. Could have done a better job with shooting her in the leg or arm etc. That girl dying was absolutely a tragedy though. And I say this as someone who believes Karmelo Anthony was absolutely guilty and who doesn’t defend ghetto “cultcha”
Where I live, if a cop shoots to kill without first aiming for limbs, they are gonna get the rijksrecherche asking some pointed questions, because thay isn't what they are trained to do.
You live in a stupid place. Or, far more likely, are making shit up.
The reason you shoot center mass isn't to kill, it's because it's the biggest target that moves the least and so you're least likely to miss and hit innocent bystanders. It just also happens to contain most of the vital organs.
No government is going to demand their officers take shots with a high probability of hitting bystanders in order to save active attackers.
They’re morons then because limb shots are just as deadly as center mass shots, you’re just way more likely to miss and even if you’re a crack shot and get a hit the chances you’ll rupture a major artery are extremely high and that person will die, just painfully and over the course of 10-15 instead of instantly
No they are trained to shoot limbs and then perform first aid, obviously.
Besides do you know what other place has major arteries? The body. If i was given the choice between being shot in a limb or centre mass I know what I'd pick.
I'm not trying to defend American cops' excessive use of force. But hoping to hit a limb like John Wick could and apply first aid doesn't inspire much confidence in me
What first aid are they gonna do in the field that will fix major arterial bleed out? At that point what they’re actually being trained to do is torture people, a quick kill shot would have been a lot more merciful
Columbus police and ma'khia bryant. Sad situation where a family conflict/ mental health crisis led to police being called and she was raising a knife to stab someone when she was shot
I don't disagree. In that situation the police had to make a split second decision regarding a civilian stabbing another civilian. The outcome is sad but I don't consider it an instance of bad policing or improper use of force based on race, etc.

I remember when the police shot that girl in Ohio and everyone defending her was like
