Seriously? Plenty of people have put in plenty of work to explain things and educate you on the matter. You've made it VERY clear you have no interest in learning, you just wanna be petulant about it and frustrate people into giving up so that you can,a in some twisted logic, 'prove' to yourself and others that it's not real.

The cop in that vid did panic for sure,that's not the best behaviour.

Take cover and shoot tires and when the driver gets out she could have shot his legs or she could call for backup when he drove away after shooting the tires.

I wonder about the entry exam for police training and how they train them to behave under stress.

The fact that the suspect is armed and tried to kill the officer means that the most advisable thing for the officer to do is to kill the suspect IMMEDIATELY using the maximum amount of force possible. When a police officer is met with deadly force, they need to respond with deadlier force: that means completely unloading their gun until it's empty.

The officer could have shot at the suspect's legs but if the officer has a shot at the suspect's legs, that likely means the suspect has an angle on the officer's head. In addition, as long as the suspect isn't dead, the suspect can still pull a trigger. Shooting at the legs doesn't incapacitate a trigger finger: the suspect needed to die.

The officer did the right thing: she survived the ordeal and has guaranteed that a scumbag will never open fire on another person again.

She had all room to take cover ,shoot the tires and ask the driver to drop his gun and step out of the car while calling for backup herself but instead she firstly made herself vulnerable by going around the car again and then just unloads the whole gun.

This could have been handled better,but this kind of panicky behaviour seems to reflect on a lot of cops in the US.(lack of training?)
