Or it may have needlessly ended a life.
You can't know - one way or the other.
Indeed he does.
In the 90’s the Nashville PD got called to a house because of a “mentally deficient” woman named Jackie Brooks. They get there, she comes running at the cop with a knife up and in a threatening position. He unloaded his 9mm into her, and she FINALLY fell. There was a big bruhaha about that, and then the cops all switched to 10mm.
Sounds like suicide-by-cop.
I am sure the cops “feared for their life”
They went home safe at the end of their shift, all that matters.
“If you see three thugs walking down your street breaking car windows you don’t want the police to help ?”
If I was armed, why would I want them around?
Likely I would be the one shot.
“ Don’t want him shot and killed?”
Maybe they didn’t want their heads cut off.
Austin is a catch all meaningless phrase.
A lot of “autistic” teen boys are violent psychopaths.
I am sure there is totally unjustified shooting, beating up, etc. However, if someone is coming at you with a scythe, what are you supposed to do? Wait until you get stabbed. That looks more dangerous than a knife.
Sometimes I am so ashamed of so called conservatives. So black and white about death. No exceptions for you people. No amount of risk is acceptable. Instead of arguing if this situation warranted such immediate action you all just want to kill- Kill- Kill. Cowards.

Video says it all..good on the cops.
A dad in the home would have solved this problem.
In a sane world,most of life’s problems are solved without the use of a firearm.
To bad that world is gone.

“ Austin is a catch all meaningless phrase”
Funniest spell correct I’ve seen: “don’t want him killed”, “don’t want heads cut off” , type simething like Autisn => what’s the following word intended? Autism? Naah, more likely Austin.
Even more likely, Chicago.
In the eighties I went on a business trip from Austin to Chicago. While there one days local headlines were “judge shot to death in open court” and “police find headless body in back seat of car”. I was glad when I got back the headline in the Austin paper was “if we don’t do something about it in a few years the airport will be too small”.
Little town, little problems I guess.
I stand be helplessly? We’re not alike, not even a little.
You do you, I’ll be a man.
He sounded like a great grandfather, I hope before he went to stand before God that he got to teach others the way.
After seeing the NM cop get attacked with that knife in that horrific video, I’d be shooting as soon as I saw a glimmer of steel. Tueller drill, yo.
Congrats, moron.
