Usually I say shoot if threatened but, in this case, it did not look like she charged him. He could have backed off a bit and still had time to snap a few off if she turned on him
me initial gut reaction to the video. its not like shes can hurt him from a distance, and doesnt appear to have closing speed.
maybe she still ends up dead that day, but it seemed early in the process to make that call.

Didn't look like the woman was walking directly toward the cop to me.

You obviously have no idea of the lethality of edged weapons.
L.O.L. If that 30-something copy can't outrun the old, fat Vietnamese woman with a knife, he shouldn't be on the force.

Why does he have to run? Supposing he runs away and she attacks someone else in the area? Who gets blamed then? The simple fact is, the appropriate level of force with someone armed with an edged weapon is deadly force. To argue otherwise is ignorant.

Thank you--after sifting through 12 pages of garbage in this thread, you would have thought that Usain Bolt himself were charging the cop with a bazooka. I can't believe people are still defending this guy. He fires what appears to be about 5 shots at an older lady who is shuffling towards him, even apparently continuing to fire after she was staggering, falling towards the ground. If it were a clear cut case of self-defense, I don't think he would have resigned from the force and that the department would have refused to release the video footage until forced to by the city council.

What a fricking pussy. Shot a fat old woman. Cops are the biggest beta bitches out there.

He doesn't necessarily.

No one said he should run away.

Her.
