now you are just grasping at straws.

no, i'm sure the entire case hinged on the part about shooting continuing after the suspect was down. not only not in the same ball park, not even the same game.

apparently there is an issue understanding "the threat is neutralized"

the above is from your link. it's not even in the same ball park. still don't bet the farm on it.

i'll consider that when i see a link to such. the rule of thumb is to shoot until the threat is neutralized. this was 3 shots (not 5 as earlier stated) in rapid succession. i wouldn't suggest betting the farm on that claim you made.

that's nonsense.

in the first, i'd have just put my hands up at that point in the 3rd, i'd have waited as i'd been expecting either a cop or another car chasing them (possible drive by or gangs having a dispute)

that's quite dismissive. there's videos out there - try youtube.

that you've seen. some of us have seen video evidence, and in slow motion - yes, she hit him.

amusing given the driver was shot only after she struck one with her vehicle.

the driver was not shot for "...interfering with federal officers."

no, the normal expectation would be to know something about firearms and how ineffective that tactic would be: - this isn't a hollywood movie, where every cop is an olympic level pistol shooter who always hits what he aims at. - the tires presented a smaller profile than the driver and were obscured by the vehicle - take a tape measure and see how far you are from the front of a vehicle before you can even see the tires. - shooting tires out does not stop the vehicle and is not a time sensitive way to end the threat - bullets ricochet - shooting at tires will result in bullets that miss (and reference the first point - there's a lot, look up the percentage of misses in officer shootings) and you'll have everyone within 200 yards in danger.

he's all fleas and no hat.

that's part of the patrol officer fitness test..........

multitasking. you might try it someday.

my family was been in texas long before you arrived as a lab animal, chetah

i'm from texas..........

now we're up to 5 shots?

it wasn't too bad that day - but then the wind stopped blowing and it was sooo humid.

i needed to clean my glasses

DENVER -- A former school bus aide pleaded guilty Monday to assaulting three nonverbal students with autism who were unable to report the abuse. Kiarra Jones, 30, entered guilty pleas to 12 charges under a plea agreement as she was about to go on trial in suburban Denver for abuse that was revealed in 2024 by bus surveillance video, according to prosecutors and court documents. Jones is represented by lawyers from the public defender’s office, which does not comment to the media on its cases. The abuse was discovered after Jessica Vestal, the mother of one of the nonverbal students, asked school officials to review the surveillance video to try to explain a series of injuries her son, then 10, suffered after going to school early last year, including bruises all over his body and a black eye. more at https://abcnews.go.com/Health/wireStory/former-school-bus-aide-pleads-guilty-assaulting-3-128927319
