This kid was at 15 feet and holding a knife, and likely had been warned, what's the issue? Back turned on not, has nothing to do with it.

Of course the press make no effort to educate the public on
- The 21 foot rule and its reasoning
- The standard best practice of emptying the magazine, to ensure contact is made. And how easy it is to miss contact when under trained and under stress
- That bullets don’t always stop an individual, especially when that individual is on certain types of drugs (PCP).

If you want to knowingly threaten a cop, or take substances that are known to put you in a state of mind to threaten a cop or anyone for that matter, and the threat is legitimate, kill the bastard; and everyone should smile about it and move in.

Since when have we got so yellow livered about consequences?

What am I missing here?
