I appreciate what you’re saying, and in many cases I agree.
My point is, this gives a green light to the thugs to run cops over....
Several times in the past few years Miami cops (not Miami Beach) have shot and stopped felons who were fleeing the scene by trying to run over the police who were ordering them to stop.
This is not a good idea, imo. It will result in more dead cops, not dead perps.
I would rather have 10 dead cops than one dead bystander killed by stray rounds.
The problem is, that cops have shot up a few too many cars that were not trying to run them over. It's a simple case of bad cops that have ruined it for the good ones. Very few cops are killed at work as compared to many other trades. Quit watching so much TV.
