Bringing a knife to a gunfight

This happened about 10 miles from my house

That video does not inspire confidence the those cop's marksmanship, or the stopping power
of the ammo they were using. To me that looked like suicide by cop, but if that kid had been one step faster, he'd have got one of those cops on the way out

Yup happens here too
Stabbed employee fatally shoots attacker at Cash Only in Detroit
Cash Only, a club located below Prime and Proper, was the scene of a violent altercation between a guest and security guard. The guest stabbed the security guard; the employee fatally shot the attacker.

+1 for the security guard

No,No,No... A mental health counselor should have responded. Not a PoPo.
The mental health counselor would have been stabbed repeatedly.....Then and Only then could the PoPo Respond with force.

Oh and only after LeBron gave the go ahead a course....Duhhh!!

you would have to be very brave and/or very stupid to confront that guy unarmed
he was wound tighter than a $3 watch

Shooting someone isn't like some fucking bullshit TV show.

RARELY does someone go down with a single shot especially when placed center mass. You get a guy on adrenaline, meth, PCP or a host of other controlled substances and the ONLY way they go down in one is a cranial shot, neck shot that severs the spinal cord or something similar. Even a single perfectly placed shot to the heart there's no guarantee they'll go down in one. Even with the precision engineered projectiles we have today.

You shoot until the threat is no longer a threat. All the time. Every time. Period.

Reader's digest;

On April 6, 2007, Mike Day was caught in a brutal firefight with three al-Qaeda insurgents after he was the first of his team to enter a room in a town near Fallujah, Iraq. The enemy fighters opened fire, hitting Day with 27 separate bullets. His body armor stopped eleven shots, but 16 penetrated his body and left him perilously wounded.

A grenade then exploded just 10 feet away from him, knocking him unconscious. According to Mike Day, when he woke up roughly a minute later, he managed to kill two of the fighters with his pistol.
