Topic	Cop shoots suspect in the leg after less lethal fails

I think that before a cop feels it's necessary to pull their gun out and shoot, they should ask themselves "is it really going to be the end of the world if I just let this guy go for now?" It's not like cops can't find suspects later on. It's almost as if there's this idea that "omg no you can't just let somebody not comply with the cops and get away. You gotta use lethal force if necessary. Anything it takes to stop somebody from disrespecting us cops!" Visit a city sometimes. Well if somebody disappears never to be found again, is that the end of the world? Is it so necessary to round up every single suspect immediately? Is it not possible that cops are endangering more people's lives needlessly by forcing the issue so boldly than they are saving from possible harm from these suspects in the future by ensuring they are captured? Has anyone bothered to do the math? If not, why not? Do you actually think someone fleeing the police is going to spend the rest of their life in hiding without committing any other crimes? --- "History Is Much Like An Endless Waltz.
