You do not shoot to wound. This is not the movies.

People don't go flying backwards when they are shot.

If they are determined they keep coming.

A great example of how ineffective pistol rounds are at stopping a threat is Jacksonville PD officer Jared Reston's shooting.

Just wanted to point this out. When your life is threatened you shoot to stop....shooting to wound is stupid.



Note: All of this is for incidents in which lethal force is justified.



I agree with you completely.

That video showed a murder however.

Could they have shot him with a rubber bullet first or tazed him? I don't get this video at all. Looked like a crazy person skipping down the street

Maybe so. I haven't watched the video.

Just commenting on the idea that you would ever "shoot to wound".

You should never shoot unless you or someone's life was being endangered and if life is endangered you don't risk it by solely "shooting to wound."
