10. You need to watch video, police didn't try to shoot child, they fired one shot to stop the MFer from killing child.

That happens sometimes, I suspect they decided to shoot before the guy could spill the child's blood all over the apartment and stairwell outside like he did the mother's.

Oh No, we'll go to mat bashing a policeman for what well could have been best action with that killer clutching child Silent Type Sep 2025 #11
prettttty sure that shooting the toddler is not the best action WhiskeyGrinder Sep 2025 #14
Except he didn't shoot at toddler, hoping to kill rapist/abuser before he spread toddler's blood all over the place like Silent Type Sep 2025 #18
He did shoot at the toddler. That's how the toddler got hit. WhiskeyGrinder Sep 2025 #20
Yeah, he took one shot and he aimed at child rather than rapist perp holding the kid with blood all over the place. BS. Silent Type Sep 2025 #21

It's a pity that cops in this country have damaged their reputations so badly. Crunchy Frog Sep 2025 #17
But not in this case. Maybe people ought to look a little closer before dragging up BS from over a year ago. Silent Type Sep 2025 #19

Why couldn't Goc have used a taser instead of his gun in this instance? red dog 1 Sep 2025 #23
Not really an option Greg_In_SF Sep 2025 #30
