Don’t police officers have guns in part to shoot people who run?
every single person who runs is an equal threat and therefore deserving of being shot? we’re talking about subjective judgment here. they also have cars to go after speeders. do they arrest every single one because they’re speeding all the same?
Police officers have guns to shoot anything that makes them feel the slightest bit insecure.
“Don’t police officers have guns in part to shoot people who run?”
Um.........No?
They have guns to shoot people, running or not. The important distinction is whether using the deadly force is justified. In the case of one who is running, IF it is a violent felon who is fleeing, AND is an immediate danger to others, THEN the shooting MIGHT be justified. Those circumstances do not seem to be the case in that video.
