Seems justified to me. Good call on this one.

Is Marilyn Mosby “BLM” gonna prosecute her cops?

I don’t see the issue here. Is someone worried that killing the piece of trash somehow traumatized the children? Did the scumbag bleed all over the rug? Did the cleanup crew hurt themselves dragging his worthless carcass out?

Chain of command. What’s the supervisor supposed to say. “Head on in there and wing it”?

Benefit of the doubt definitely goes to the supervisor in this case. It’s a judgement call, and the supervisor explained his rationale. And his rationale seems pretty solid.

Sometimes violence is the only answer.

While this may have been the only option, it was wrong for him to say “I want you to go in there and kill him”

The correct thing is to say “you are authorized to use lethal force, if necessary” and leave it at that.

That may he the exact right thing to do and to plan for but you cannot say it like that. Ya gotta leave the officer entering the ability to aize up the evolving (if they evolve) curcumstances and nake his/her own independent judgement based upon the circumstances they encounter.

I approve of the order exactly as given. By removing the delay inherent in the shooter making that decision based on direct observation, the supervisor both increased the safety of the children and potentially reduced the guilt the shooter may feel. He’s a good man to work for. “The buck stops here”.

"High on drugs ... could kill {a hostage} at any second ... no need for less lethal."

Couldn't agree more. Decisions and actions have consequences. For the {expletive} hostage taker, his decision to do something stupid and dangerous has a consequence - he loses his life. Done.
