I’m wondering what the point of posting this is. The teen was pointing a gun. The officer believed people’s safety was in jeopardy. What’s to say, except “People teach your children responsible behavior with weapons”?

"The shooting isn't the first violent encounter at that Taco Bell. In February 2004, 27-year-old Eric Kalenka was repeatedly and fatally stabbed in the leg during a fight prompted by a fender-bender at the drive-through window. In August 2003, restaurant worker Joshua Goliver, 21, was fatally shot in the chest through the drive-through window during a robbery."

It sure seems that Taco Bell gets more headlines for stuff like this than all the other fast food joints combined.

A modern .177 caliber pellet rifle (capable of 1,200+ fps muzzle velocity) is very nearly as capable as a .22 rifle of killing a human being.

Having one of them pointed at you is NOT a trivial matter and IS, in my opinion, a self-defense shooting situation.

If the story is accurate, that is a good outcome. End of story.

I know the people on this board have high standards, but can’t we get in at least a little bit of praise for the cop who hit this genius in the right arm, disablilng him, not seriously hurting him, from something like far away?
