[QUOTE]Originally posted by Tahna Los: [QB] If the police thought Diallo was a real threat because they THOUGHT he had a gun, they should have shot him at least two to three times. Smart self-defence would require the officers to try to disable the assailant while making sure that he is no longer a threat. If he persists, then you may have to shoot to kill as a last resort. 41 shots and 19 hits is real Overkill. And the pun is for real. As for the lawsuit with that woman. I agree that the lawsuit with the gun manufacturer is totally ludicrous. And yes, I believe that it was an attempt to shift blame from the officers who killed her. As for whether the officers should have been fired, yes, I believe so. This is a definite case of poor judgement causing a death of an human being. Just like Diallo. And just like that kid who got shot after getting lost on a way to a party. Here is what all this boils down to: Great powers DEMAND Great Responsibilities. And when you have the power to determine life or death, you must have an EXTREME sense of judgement in order to know what is the proper and right thing to do while making sure no one is fatally injured as a result.
