Btw, thanks the nice comment. And too bad for the suspect, a simple $1. bean bag round, a K9 or stun gun probably could have saved this guys life and eliminated his threat with little effort. Nobody won here.

The problem comes in with the word “probably”. No one is going to be a cop for $17.50 an hour if they have to use nonlethal means against clearly lethal weapons like knives.

Agreed. Pepper spray is also good for attitude adjustment.

Maybe GA Tech will spend more resources on security training and policies instead of the PC programs it’s no doubt funding.

The Left doesn’t give a damn about mental illness. It was Pete Domenici (R) (RIP) that forced health insurers to give a damn.

It’s an interesting dichotomy where Conservatives focus on the factors of mental illness, and the Left focuses on exploiting it — yet, the Left somehow manages to look like the feel-good guy.
