It is if you say it really fast without any pause or intake of air.
Isn't it?
And I know that. And you know what I'm going to say next: if she was armed, and if that weapon was a knife, to expect a cop to rush her and fight her for the knife is illogical.
Let's save ourselves the trouble and agree to disagree now and not in 32 posts
Whole police station behind you? Who is expecting you to rush her? They have tons of non lethal options. Mace her, taze her. I'd say the mace alone would drop the knife, ever been maced? I had friends just spray a shot in an open room (not in anyone's face) and we were choking and had to leave.

No not real cops nor amyone else should be expected to aim for the leg. That really just ahows they were either insanely close or his partners a bad shot or his partner was indifferent to him dying. You always aim for the center mass. A moving limb is insanely hard to hit so I doubt the any story of a lunging man taking a ehot to the leg. Its not about killing everytime.
Thats the one thing you wont fine me claiming cops should do.
No I dont think they shoile have shot this girl at all, but dedinitely never aim for the legs. And appealing to yhem as heroea for it is a false sentiment. The only hero cops are the ones you hear of losing their job because they informed on officer corruption.

I think the issue is that US ploice officers seem woefully undertrained, it seems they dont have any skills to deal with a situation like this other than shooting.

How stupid do they think non cops are? Newsflash - A hell of a lot smarter than Cops.

Did not know that AOC was 17 in TX.
Speculation to some people is critical thinking to others.
Face it they are not being very free with actual facts here.
What I see is a very pretty girl, the type that men like to score with, put a notch on their belt, brag about then throw away when used.

We won't though will we, because if nothing like that comes out no matter how bad (or not) the findings presented are you can just claim it's part of the cover-up you've created.
You'll be 'right' either way, if you are and it's admitted you're right, if it's not it's covered up.
Usual fluff one sees on boards like this as well as the comments sections of news stories and blogs - Mostly delusional ideas relying on circular reasoning that people put forward to try and appear clever and informed to the more weak minded among their peers, if not for that then usually the result of not taking one's Seroquel.

I sure am glad to see someone who knows what happened here. What were her actions like when she cam in? What did she say? Did she rush at any officers, or was she just standing there? How close were the three officers who shot her?
I'll have more questions later. Thanks in advance for being the guy with the facts.
