But now, that woman is demanding justice: saying a small man with a box-cutter posed no threat to the officers.

The 9/11 hijackers were armed only with utility knives. A razor sharp utility knife can easily cut someone's throat.

Right-O! The proper response when confronted with someone who is about to slash your face is to shoot them. The police acted wisely and in doing so probably saved other victims from this zipwad.

You're right about this. Boxcutters are NASTY! They'll cut right through clothes and everything else. They'll cut deep enough to open you carotid artery and you'll bleed to death in a couple of minutes.

CAN, against an unsuspecting victim who is unarmed, unprepared, and untrained. Police are properly trained to manage ANY situation, including distraught fools with 1" blades... and that training does NOT include "shoot to kill".
