If the remaining options are letting someone play demolition derby on the ISU campus or shooting the dumbass, then I’m going to have to cast a vote for shooting the dumbass. Overall, it sounds like the officer shooting the kid was making a more rational decision than either the father or the son in this story.

If the punk had run into a group of students killing and injuring some, people would be complaining the cops didn't do anything to stop it.

Big IF lets deal with facts. That truck wasn’t going anywhere with the tree in front of it. But its easier to write paperwork for a shooting then wrestly a troubled kid to the ground.
