Why do some people constantly lean on the tired, shabby argument that only people with first hand experience in any given situation can possibly have an opinion? Are all the bloodthirsty types posting here really veterans of shootouts? I somehow doubt it. The guy who gets my vote is the trooper a while back who made a traffic stop and the driver exited with a semi-auto rifle in hand. He calmly took cover, shot the guy once, wounding him, took him to jail. He's now in prison. I'm sure this was a big disappointment to the types who think the trooper should have emptied his sidearm into the suspect, reloaded and did it again. This officer should be training police officers, although I'm not sure you can teach coolness under pressure. All our technology and progress only seems to have coarsened public sensibilities. Not surprisingly, the easier it becomes to kill, the less concerned people seem about doing so.
