NYPD are trained like crap. Spray and pray seems to be SOP for these guys. (Dad was NYPD. He was also a marine so he knew how to shoot)

Body guards carry?
In some NY City shoot-outs I have read about the police shoot more innocent bystanders than criminals.
In other incidents police have fired huge numbers of rounds.
Not criticizing the officers - just commenting on the difficulties of putting every round where you intend. I'm sure the same thing takes place in other cities.
Here is a story of an incident last August where two police officers fired 16 rounds at one lone criminal with a gun and they wounded 9 innocent people.
Police Shot All Nine Bystanders in Empire State Gun Battle
Here is another incident where two policemen confronted a shooter armed with a lowly 6 shot .22 caliber revolver. The title speaks for itself:
Two NYPD Cops Fire 84 Rounds at Murder Suspect
And to keep it in context, remember that at the time NY City had some of the toughest gun control laws in the nation. And both shooters had illegal pistols, not scary, black, "Assault Rifles".
