“once you draw your weapon like that, you have to defend yourself with deadly force.”

Really? Did he shout out a warning to her? Did the several Police officers who each outweigh her by at least 50 pounds attempt to arrest her? Did he ask the other officers for help? Try shooting at an unarmed person without at least shouting out a warning even if they’re climbing through your window and you’ll end up in handcuffs in most states, especially if the person is half your size and you can physically handle them.

Why didn’t they use a taser on her? The left is always crying why cops don’t use tasers, even on armed perps. So why was she shot when a taser would have done the trick, especially in light of the fact that she wasn’t armed, and wasn’t an immediate threat to any of the men standing on the other side of the door. They didn’t even know who was climbing through the door. It could have been another cop, or even a Congress critter. The guy saw movement, and just fired. It could have been a kid for that matter.
