Many cops, especially females, are so scared shitless of being shot or otherwise seriously hurt, shooting someone becomes a possibility in practically any civilian encounter.
I’ll do it since nobody else will:
Females shouldn’t be cops or soldiers.
They can be spies, analysts, etc. They can’t be cops. It’s a dumb idea and it jeopardizes the lives of innocent civilians. They go to the gun first.
For her to shoot like that she had to:
1. Have already had the gun drawn.
2. Been so scared that she fired at the site of anything black (I have a Wii, and I guarantee the controller he was holding was black, and it doesn’t look anything like a gun).
3. Had no faith in her partner at all in serving a warrant. (Why was she the one knocking if she was so scared she was going to get drawn on?)
