Genius. ** -- WaxHoo 10/28/2020 10:09AM You really are smart. You've thought this thing all the way through. ** -- Hokieesith 10/28/2020 10:14AM Clearly better than you have. You say you don't know the story ... ** -- WaxHoo 10/28/2020 10:40AM I don't have to.

Why are they taught that? ** -- Hoobedoobedoo 10/28/2020 09:51AM I worked for an armored car company and their training is instructive here -- WahooKid 10/28/2020 10:34AM Well, I wouldn't say it's necessarily "shoot to kill" -- Hoo23 10/28/2020 09:57AM Because it doesn't make sense. -- Hokieesith 10/28/2020 09:55AM Ok, once, twice, 14 times? -- Hoobedoobedoo 10/28/2020 09:56AM I read once that an average police officer will go through their entire -- Late 80s Hokie 10/28/2020 11:32AM I don't know the whole situation. -- HAZER 10/28/2020 10:02AM I am sure there is a fog of war component but it seems that training -- Hoobedoobedoo 10/28/2020 10:04AM Well, you're not trained to fire once or twice. -- HAZER 10/28/2020 10:14AM No doubt. But we at least need to examine our policing practices in this -- Hoobedoobedoo 10/28/2020 10:26AM No doubt about it, as we always should. -- HAZER 10/28/2020 10:30AM I don't know the whole story.

I do think it was handled badly. -- WaxHoo 10/28/2020 10:47AM But UNTIL we put in those changes, the police are the ones who get this -- Late 80s Hokie 10/28/2020 11:38AM I thought the call went out that he had a knife. -- HAZER 10/28/2020 10:51AM You're presuming the guy is in control of his faculties.
