Conversely, when a cop is shot DEAD we always ask ourselves "How did he allow himself to be so vulnerable as to get shot by someone?"

For officers, it's a LIFE OR DEATH matter of fractions of a second in making decisions.

If the suspect verbally threatened to shoot the cops, they had every reason to respond accordingly.

So you’re ok with them shooting into that innocent family’s home. Tough luck for the little boy the cops shot to death, eh.

If the suspect verbally threatened to shoot the cops, they had every reason to respond accordingly.

So you really think that if someone mouths off it is OK to kill them, and any little kid who happens to be behind them?

If you really believe that you need help.

Trained police officers, soldiers, and civilians don't shoot people because they make threats, and they don't shoot without making sure their shots won't strike an innocent person unless they are truly in immediate peril.
