Objective: to stop them. Who teaches to aim for the heart? Is it not just center mass? You aren’t supposed to try to hit their a specific area to kill them specifically are you? In that case aim for the head....which of course is a bad idea....which is why to aim center mass...
I am not arguing, I am just trying to understand....it fascinates me. And if that logic has changed I am wondering why?
It's just semantics and logical consequences. George Zimmerman killed Trayvon Martin, because he did exactly what he was trained to do in the situation he found himself in.
If it was me .. i’d be happy to just hit him and in the shock of things, get out from under and .... I’ll read the situation and deal accordingly at THAT point.
“Who teaches to aim for the heart?”
He didn’t aim for the heart - he just shot hoping he would hit him somewhere. I heard a recording of his testimony to the cops and he said he thought he hadn’t even hit him - thought the shot went wild.
