        Answer: When you have been informed that he is armed, has hands out of sight, and is refusing to obey orders to stop.

        okay but wouldn't you shoot to disarm @ most given that he's older and slower than any cop 20-50 yrs younger?

        Real life is not a movie. You dont shoot to "disarm". If you shoot, your shooting to take down

        Police did their job. Police asked him to stop and take his hands out of his jacket. Mental illness sucks, but is not an excuse

        a lot do. Its about protecting & serving , not shooting when scared or confused. They could have done so much better

        In that scenario, they are protecting and serving the civilians nearby. Sorry, but real life isnt as simple as you wish it

        73 year old man 20 feet away from you is a threat? You're not going to shoot him in the leg or arm first? Kill shot?

        will the "indiscrimate" police killing ever stop? He was 73 years, 7 shots & turns out no weapon found on him. 1 shot to disable...

        then they should be trained to at least disarm 1st before killing. Disgusting all these unnecessary killings.
