Comment on How come cops who are trained in guns shoot to kill all the time? Even people who have no gun. Why not go in with your hand on the taser, and ready just in case to shoot someone in the leg?

No I like to watch those old COPS reruns and always think to myself how quickly they draw a gun first. Then it just seems to have gotten worst. Like the lady with hot water in a pan. Who got shot the shit out of, could they not easily reach for a taser first before a gun? I get if one is pointing at you or to someones head. But just to prove or try to prove more that you in authority is bullshit. It really wouldn’t surprise me if a study was done on officers who shot people in the back spike because they just got tired of chasing.
