No. The threat a person with a knife poses is too great to bother saving their life. Their is no advantage to try to save their life, when by wielding a knife in public threatening death, has already given up the value of their life.

Nothing of value is lost when we kill these people.

Shooting for the legs is stupid, the police who do that run a great risk of being killed unless you have 20+ police shooting at the legs.

ALWAYS shoot to kill, everyone who have shot anything know it's not very easy to aim in a thight spot. So always shoot at the middle of the torso.
>>

Mentally ill man was hostile and a direct threat to the officers' lives. German cop clearly knew man was drunk and knew the threat of force was due to his drunkenness; his drunkenness also allowed the officer time to make a leg shot, which is DANGEROUS AS FUCK TO SHOOT TO WOUND. Mentally ill man probably was intending on harming anyone in his way, as armed mentally ill people tend to do.
>>
You can die just as easily from shot to the arm or leg as you can from the chest. In fact, it's more likely to survive from a torso wound, since there's more substance to take the damage. In the arms or legs, there's very little "stuff" in the way of blocking or absorbing the damage before it gets to the major arteries or veins. MEaning, to even hit the arms or legs is to have less wiggle room to NOT hit those important areas.

Aiming for extremities is retarded and should never be attempted. If you have your gun out, you aim for center mass. If you didn't need to shoot to stop/kill, you didn't need to shoot period.

No, it wouldn't. Their criticisms aren't based in reality to begin with so trying to appease them is pointless.

What if that man with the knife took off into the crowd and started stabbing people? They couldn't shoot for fear of hitting people.
>>
>>69244798

Its preserving the cops life to stop the suspect. Also anyone who could be harmed if the subject gets away from the cop. Troll harder.
>>
>>69244798
I know in the NYPD example their glock's trigger pull is about 13 pounds; having to use 13 pounds of force to pull the trigger results in your shots being significantly less accurate and aiming for extremities greatly increases the chances of hitting an innocent person, especially in a densely populated area
>>
Depends on the situation.

I post this link every time someone asks this and it always seems to be ignored. This is exactly why "shooting to wound" is fucking retarded. Anything worth shooting once is worth shooting as many times as it takes to kill it.

You aren't allowed to intentionally maim or injure. You are only allowed to fire a gun if you are in imminent danger. If you have the time to aim for a leg, then you shouldn't be firing at all

Also, I dint get this trope that leg shots aren't life threatening, there are arteries in legs that will bleed out in seconds, killing the person

Modern US police are more worried about getting sued by a surviving attacker more so than retaliation or losing their own lives. That is why they are trained to use excessive force and aim for center mass rather than an extremity or the arm of an attacker. It makes sense but only if you live in a culture that has been cucked by legal ramifications.
>>
>>69244798
>Why don't US cops aim for the extremities rather than center mass?

Because reasons.

-Its harder to hit your target. Bigger target (torso) better chance of hitting it.

-Lawsuits. Even if Jamal was on a naked, violent drug fueled rampage hurting people he will still end up suing you and the police dept. for injuring him. Lawyers can suck major asshole sometimes.

In concealed carry classes you are taught to kill the threat to avoid this lawsuit issue, plus its your word vs the dead guy who can't speak.

Also, center mass is aimed for because it's the largest target, thus minimizing risk of missing and collateral damage.

Also, the only time you discharge a weapon is when you're certain the threat needs to be ended.

Let us imagine a person runs at you in a straight line towards an object. His legs and body will be moving forwards. If we create a line between the object and the person, the line will remain horizontal towards the ground for the entire time the person moves towards the object.
If we now create a line between the object and the lower part of his body, we can see that the angle changes while the person moves towards the object.
If we now imagine that our hands are part of the line, since we hold the gun in our hand, it becomes evident that the hands have to adjust while the person runs towards us.
It should also be obvious that having to constantly adjust the position of the hand is more difficult then remaining stationary.
Secondly, the upper body is bigger, thereby increasing the chance of us placing the shot.
In a dangerous situation everything happens very fast. The easiest and safest way is to shoot at the upper body.
Judging such a situation from the comfort of your armchair isn't really gonna help.
Don't want to be shot?

A gun only purpose is to kill someone or something. To use a gun only to incapacitate someone would be against what the purpose of a gun is suppose to do. Other weapons are more useful in incapacitating someone. The real question that should be asked is what other weapons can we use instead of guns, like taser, so we don't have to kill a suspect or is killing someone who posses a threat to others justified.

You're wasting your time OP. People here only believe what FOX or so shits into their mouths.
>>
>>69244798
Because aiming for center of mass increases the likelihood that a bad shot will still hit something. Walk a pistol course where you are being timed, and see just how quickly you can get two into every target, then figure that when you're under stress, you're going to be a lot worse of a shot than normal. Aiming for extremities when you are in a situation where you are allowed to use lethal force is just asking to get your own ass killed.

Our police has been trained to be hesitant with using their weapon. The problem with that is that there's now a bunch of shitskins crawling around the country and they're not shooting them, when the situation justifies it.

Basically, having more relaxed cops who don't use their weapon outside of the utmost emergency situations works, when your country has next to no non-whites, but soon becomes a burden once your politicians open the flood gates.

Assuming the picture is true, the cop on the bottom most likely meant to hit center of mass but missed due to stress. If I were an officer, I would shoot as soon as a threat is established. Cops are trained to recognize facial, vocal, and body language cues to determine threats. Niggers are kill on sight.

It's also harder to aim a pistol than you'd think, especially with the minimal firearms training officers receive. If he went for the leg he would endanger bystanders and himself with a ricocheting or traveling bullet.

As someone already mentioned, you don't argue with someone whose argument is not based in any reality. But it's always interesting that liberals who argue for these "shoot to injure" rules are either whites who live in relatively safe cities and neighborhoods where they can possibly live their entire life without their life or safety in danger, pacifist women or minorities with a chip on their shoulder about whites in general.

Also, I'm handy with a rifle and a shotgun. First time shooting pistols in years I was sitting down about 15 yards away from a target. First was a .22 revolver (cops will never use this), second was a 9mm, and the last was a .45. The .22 shot like a bb gun so no problem getting the hang of it. I was fairly accurate with the .45. The 9mm was the hardest to aim by far, obviously the 9mm and .45 were completely different guns and brands, regardless, I was sitting down 15 yards away from a target with no stress on me whatsoever. Imagine standing up with a person trying to kill you or someone else and then getting everyone killed because "I just wanted to disable him."

Because US cops are badly trained and scared shitless to face the over-armed criminals. Thanks to americans hating taxs, they are under-staffed, under-trained and under-rested. Thanks to liberals, the little money they have they blow it on stupid stuff like bodycams.

So..i should shoot at an area the size of my fist and potentially kill a bystander through ricochet? Coke heads won't care till they're dead.
When you aim, you aim at their vitals so that doesn't happen and to end the situation then and there, not make someone waste my tax dollars to be in jail and potentially become a violent criminal again. Id rather kill a violent man as a last resort from trying to talk him down then just let him do his thing and try to hurt people.

Well i think American people just really like guns, and the sense of safety that comes with owning one/keeping it with you. People from the Netherlands and other countries don't desire that, or they just never felt it because they never owned a gun.
The whole 'i'm afraid my government is going to round up my countries population" is just made up to give them a reason for having guns in my opinion, although i respect your/the american people's patriotic mindset and desire to feel safe.

OP, don't kid yourself into thinking that a shot to the thigh or leg isn't as leathal as a chest wound. You have more mass to high in the torso, and also a bigger chance of actually surviving if you don't hit the spleen, lungs, heart or any artery.

You need to remember why you're firing at your opponent in the first place. It's not to tickle the fucker, but to take him down. A shot to the leg MIGHT stop him in his tracks, but a shot to the torso WILL definitely.

>>
>>69249612
No, it's not the laws, it's the unequal application of the laws. When determining whether a shooting was justified, the same legal standards are supposed to apply to a cop as they are to me. However, a cop is more likely to get a free pass from a grand jury than I would.

If you have a smoke detector or fire extinguisher, then you're a hypocrite. Why prepare for something that might never happen?

What about insurance? I bet you have some of those. Why? It's not like anything will happen, right?

The police take 15-20 minutes to get to a crime scene - on average. That means that they show up AFTER a crime has been committed - not during.

There's a great American saying that goes something like this; "When seconds count, help is only minutes away."

Because niggers live in ghettos, which is where a majority of nigger shootings occur.

Are you actually trying to say that you cannot draw patterns in violence based on where it occurs and the demographic of that area?

>>69250934
Yeah but arming the population also results in a huge more risks of shootings and other incidents by providing crooked minds with the tools and materials to carry out such a thing. And that's just one of the many downsides of allowing the population to be armed with lethal weapons.

Whereas a car insurance for example only requires you to pay a sum of money that will come back to you in case an unforseen accident happens.

So by legally allowing people to be armed, you think that crime inherently goes up?

Buying a gun as a felon is already a crime, so in what way does establishing a legal method make it more likely for legal people to suddenly commit crime?

The number of people killed by "gun violence", excluding suicides, is ~12,000 people annually in the US, or .00004% of the population. Compare this to the estimated 1 million Defensive Gun Uses each year, and tell me that it's not a net positive.

It is an net positive, but if you look at the murder rate and the number of shootings you can see that the number of gun owners and incidents/crimes do relate (i don't have the resources right now for sources since i am on my phone but if you don't believe it you should look it up and read the studies.)

>>69251583
By regressing to the mean?
>>
>>69244798
Well, to begin with, shooting someone in the leg is statistically more likely to kill them than shooting them in the torso. There's an artery the width of your thumb in the leg, if it's severed, you could be shot in a hospital and you'd still die. It's easier to come back from a punctured lung than a severed femoral artery.

Secondly, it's the law here. You only start shooting when you are in fear for your or someone else's life. When that happens, you shoot to kill.
