Another Police Shooting

No, you signed up for law enforcement in an imperfect world.
I've said many times before here: I don't like cops. I'm pretty biased against them. I don't like police unions. I've shared personal stories of police harassment here before.
You'd be surprised what people can do after being shot in the leg. Meth is a hell of a drug.
You don't shoot a gun unless you intend to kill someone. They're always shooting for center mass.
Have you ever used a handgun? It would help you understand pretty quick why the legs aren't a target.
"I don't want to shoot you."

Nashville officer fatally shoots man armed with two butcher knives, police say
Officer Christopher Royer has been placed on administrative assignment pending an administrative review, the Metropolitan Nashville Police Department said.
So a cop doesn't shoot someone and it is news and makes up for people who were wrongly shot? I really hope you are just arguing for the sake of argument"I don't want to shoot you."

It was inline with all the other posts you made, cops doing what they are supposed to do, like it makes up for when they don't.
If you were a police officer the reasonable assumption made during every traffic stop is the individual IS armed.
You understand that, don't you?
Don’t jump to conclusions until the erBB racists can successfully investigate the past of the victim and tell us what a bad guy he was and how the cops did society a favor by executing him with due process for not complying.
I never said that.
You expect perfection.
That's not the reality of life.
Hospitals, for instance, have loads of systems to ensure medical errors do not happen. And yet they still happen. And many people die because of it. The estimates are pretty impressive.
Are hospitals full of awful terrible doctors and nurses etc that mean harm? No. Are there bad apples? Yes.
If you go to a hospital the employees might kill you. 10 percent of all US deaths are said to be via medical error.
Knowing this, around 1,000 people a year in our country of 330,000,000 are killed by police. Armed or unarmed, but mostly armed.
Is there room for improvement? Yes of course. But I'm still able to sleep at night.
