I agree with it and was actually shocked to learn it wasn’t already the law.

Dig up The Lone Ranger to teach the class.

>> requiring them to shoot gun-wielding suspects in the arm or leg rather than shoot to kill,

17 year old shot a potential killer in the arm and the Left is outraged and the armed felon regrets not opening on the kid and killing him.

They had better dig up sharp shooters like Annie Oakley if this piece of cr@p bill passes.

I’d flat out quit if I were subjected to that. Those coming up with this kind of BS are clearly cop hating lunatics.

More proof as if we needed any that the only thing libtards know about guns is what they see in movies.

Remember, when there is a savage attack and you’re the hunted being eaten, aim only at their legs or arms. If possible, try to hit one of their toes to minimize injury severity.

What a bunch of morons... If the first shot is justifiable so are the next 15. Each deadly force incident is it's own animal. Most gunfights are within 10 yards or less. Most are over in mere seconds. While it sounds nice to be able to “just wing them”, that is hardly ever a real option. I guarantee the bad guy isn't looking to "just wing" the officer. As a cop, you hope that you will never have to take someones life. Most officers never have to. But, if deadly force is what is required to end the threat to the public and the officer, then centermass is the best option. Not a headshot, they are to small. Not arms or legs, they are too small and usually moving. "Just winging them" happens in the movies, not real life. If the officer misses and hits someone else then the cop is in deep poo poo. If the bad guy is wounded, it doesn't mean he going to give up. If the wounded bad guy ends up harming or killing a member of the public, then the cop is in deep poo poo. Each situation is (pardon the pun) what it is. Just my honest opinion, your mileage may vary.

The police academy will have to train recruits that the arm is the new center mass under this stupid bill

You’re supposed to just shoot the gun out of their hands without hitting their hands.
