    I'm going to presume that since you have zero police or military or security resume you realize that none of what you've said can be taken seriously. All you've done is verify that basic rules of law enforcement confound you, but you're willing to make sure everyone sees it. Imagine if I took your lead on knowing nothing about a topic like french cooking and went on a french cooking website and started clamoring about pastries. People would treat me like a child.

    That's amazingly naive. That situation escalated to a shooting based solely on the actions of the young man who died. Police officers have families and they have a right to do what they have to in order go home to them at the end of their shift. Too many of them don't get to.

    Think: the perp is a Black man, wearing dark clothes, and he's evading arrest and running away into an area where there are vulnerable civilians -- and -- it's NIGHT!

    This perp had already fired his weapon once, and no one could know what he would do next... take hostages, start killing people at random to create a distraction...?

    One thing was certain -- he was not going to surrender peacefully. Thus, the perp brought all this on himself.

    It doesn't matter if he's a future brain surgeon, a fast food worker, or a convicted felon with warrants out for child porn.

    The police shooting someone who is fleeing is not acceptable.

    Not at all, several officers were pointing a gun and all fired until he was stopped which took only a couple seconds of shooting, which each officer can fire several bullets in just a couple seconds time. Adding up to 60 quite easily and quickly. They did the right thing.

    What exactly are you mad about here? Are you mad that the perp wasn't calmly arrested to the local DA could drop the assault and shooting at the cops charges and let him go? Why do democrats feel like crime is a punishment they get to saddle communities with again?

    You should look up the rules some time. It's absolutely acceptable, which movie told you is wasn't?

    So your approach to crime is runners go free! That gives all the more reason to own a firearm, so, thanks, I guess :wierdface:

    At the time the criminal got shot he was no longer running but instead had turned towards the officers.

    Perhaps there should be a "contribution quotient" for those who argue for no catch these days. Every time a criminal induces property damage, death, dismemberment, etc, those who advocate that police shouldn't catch and detain should have to pay a penalty tax commensurate with the total life model to pay for the crime they insist on not dealing with. Just a thought.

    Gosh. it's just the inconsistency. I mean, given this, why is J6 an issue for them at all? Shouldn't the DAs just catch and release all of the participants, and we should just move along and shut up about it? er... oh... wait... they don't tolerate dissent from their woke. My bad...

    If the only options are to shoot them or let them go free, then yes, i would choose to let them go free.

    After discharging a weapon? Well with that in mind, what in Gods name would qualify in your realm of reality ;)

    A person who has no inhibition at shooting a cop wouldn't hesitate in shooting a defenseless child. Is that what is acceptable to you?

    If the person who is fleeing is reasonably believed to be dangerous, it absolutely IS acceptable to shoot them, and has been for decades.

    "A police officer may not seize an unarmed, nondangerous suspect by shooting him dead...however...Where the officer has probable cause to believe that the suspect poses a threat of serious physical harm, either to the officer or to others, it is not constitutionally unreasonable to prevent escape by using deadly force."

    source: Justice Byron White, Tennessee v Garner, 1985

    Did he discharge a weapon? I haven't see any video of that part, I was trying to find evidence that the claim is true.

    I would acknowledge that it would be different if he did actually fire at the officers, but i haven't see any evidence that supports that claim.
