Upcoming stories on this will be sure to include media handwringing and liberal guilt over why she didn’t “shoot to wound” , use a bean bag gun, taser or other silly notions.
I’m sure if I look hard enough, I could find the obligatory web board posting somewhere by some idiot asking why she didn’t just shoot the gun out of his hands.
I have no doubt that someone will post that. There is never a shortage of folks who Just Don't Get It.
Shoot to stop. Remove the threat. What matters is to get the perp down and disarmed. After that, whether he lives or dies is a question for the EMTs. Does he deserve to die? I can't give a damn what he "deserves." In the immortal words of Will Smith, "Don't start nothin', won't be nothin'."
