Is that No Man's Sky? Probably not, I've definitely seen that, but don't know where it's from

I am once again saying that my posts have no connection to the story you were discussing. I am just saying what I think in general.
So, let's say the guy steals 500 Dollars and a cop arrests him, yet he runs away - the cop says he will SHOOT if the guy doesn't stop (take note that he didn't specify WHERE he will shoot, only that he will use the gun) and the guy still runs away..... tell me one good argument that goes against the police officer if he kills him.
The guy gave no fucks about the policeman yelling that he WILL use his gun, therefore abusing the rights that he has as a human to shield him from the cop.
The cop may be trained, but if you've ever held a firearm, you will have noticed that it doesn't have laser-guided bullets, and tends to NOT go where you aimed - therefore it is MUCH safer to shoot him in the torso than aim for the legs and potentially miss him.
Third one is that if the guy running away actually runs because of a shitty 500 Dollars, he is disrespecting his own life's value by putting it at risk for a shitty thing like that, so why should a cop value it more than him? Basic life lesson, mate - no one will care about you more than you will yourself.
If the guy does something more severe than 500 Dollars, he deserves to get shot anyways.

he failed to use escalation of force, he should have shot at his legs to disable; being within effective range he would have hit at least once
he fully intended to kill this person

Unfortunately, cops in America aren't legally allowed to do that (Shooting people in the leg); in America when a cop shoots, he shoots to kill. This is because if a cop were to shoot someone and let them live, tax dollars would be lost taking care of the guy and then they would have the right to sue (and yes, win). It's really stupid.SaigonAlice wrote:
If someone escapes from a cop, shouldn't only a single shot suffice in capturing them - preferably in the leg? I mean, Cops are supposed to be trained.

I think it's different after being retaliated and nervous and when shooting a person.Choofers wrote:
I've held more weapons than you probably have and while guns aren't laser guided, it's pretty fucking trivial to hit a target running in a straight line with a 9mm handgun at 25 ft
Are you implying that this isn't the mean? Because unfortunately I think it is. If you look at the demographics there is no reason to expect particularly high calibre people to come here.Aurani wrote:
it is just the sheer narrow-mindedness and immaturity of most people here.

But you are stating that there is no reason to strive for a better future of this Forum just because the majority are fucking morons.B1rd wrote:

I'm assuming you think the Survey forum is where quality posts are at? Unfortunately no. Check the sexual orientation poll, it's a massive cesspool of unoriginal anti-tumblr jokes (even though I made one of them).Trash Boat wrote:

It's always the same kind of format like "I'm (insert identity) and I'm Offended" or "This triggered me" :VHonestly pedophiles are probably worse, but you know whatever. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯B1rd wrote:

There are some idiots I've talked to that are worse than paedophiles, you choose to be an idiot but you don't choose to be a paedophile. Some people don't even understand what the word actually means even after it was clearly explained to them, to carry on using it as a petty insult and conflate the term with child molesters. I guess some people like to just ignore certain things if it suits them.SaigonAlice wrote:
