Non lethal rounds could have been used.
-
No, non lethals are not loaded in service weapons. Theyd have to unload, clear and reload to use when tenths of a second counts

Too many unecessary deaths. Training protocols need to be revised. No need for death at every incident.
-
yes, dont bring a weapon to a police incident. if they say drop it do it. cops dont wake up wanting to kill people

And yet so many manage it...

Don't point guns (of any kind) at cops. And when they tell you to put it down... PUT IT DOWN. At 15, he should know better.

Guess what? Kids don't always obey adults. And EVERY adult knows that. It might, at most, deserve admonishment or extra chores. Not death.

when a weapon is involved and you dont follow commands you get shot, your fault

Police are not trained to shoot for the leg, I've been told.

Someone has been watching too much TV. Stopping the threat is how they are trained.
