whether there is anything we could have done differently,

Sure there was - they could have allowed her to knife them.

Well, they might have shot a net over her, or sprayed her with foam to immobilize her, or they might have tear gassed her to the ground, or they ... there are non-lethal weapons available, but the police at the scene have to judge whether they need to use more force.

Hello PNSN,
Funny how the monday morning Sherlock Holmes subject matter experts on (shoot do not shoot) situations, fail to understand that a LEO is authrorized to use deadly force when a perp has the opportunity, the abilty and places his life or another person’s in in jeopardy.

I have found that the FR has an abundance of metro-sexuals, addled fools, limp wrists, reds, marxist and the other usual suspects, posting about things they know nothing about when it comes to law enforcement.

I think they would have preferred the perp to knife all the officers, then blame the NRA and former President Bush.

Keep the faith.

Respectfully,
NSNR
