    14 weeks in Georgia, tender care of the Army. But forgive me for thinking the police should at least be able to do better than the Army whose default win mode is achieve the objective without committing a war crime.

    And it’s easy to get a draw and shoot down to about 1 second. But they really should have had weapons up going in, together. They knew it was a call about an aggressive minor. They could have easily had one guy trying less than legal with guy 2 ready to shoot.

    The lack of training to use deadly force isn’t an excuse. It’s a reason to disarm normal patrol officers.
