Threat = Kill = MILITARY.
Threat = Massive Option List = POLICE
Otherwise, what use ANY training at all? You "kill first, ask questions later" people are still endangering cops. After all, if any threat requires killing, then why put cops out there at all where they could be hurt? Why not go straight to military drones, and missile strikes or snipers against anyone deemed a threat? THAT is perfect police safety.
Not this half-assed endangerment where multiple police officers have to first put themselves in harm's way to determine that an unarmed woman with a baby is a threat before they can murder her.
All I'm saying is say what you mean. The sooner we go to complete military takeover and drones firing missiles at "threats," from offsite computer terminals, the sooner cops will stop being endangered in the line of duty.

I think it is time some FReepers came out of the closet, and just admitted that they want to get rid of the police altogether and go straight to martial law. Threat = Kill = MILITARY.

Hear, hear.
The more militarized cops are, the more incidents like this we seem to have. And some people--even here on FR-- cheer on the State's iron fisted response, never realizing that THEY could be the next victim of the military-police complex.
We had more restrictive rules of engagement in Afghanistan than these donut munchers had in DC against this poor woman.
