The 9mm round sucks, I agree. And I suspect that's what this cop had.

The Military should have never dropped the old .45 ACP, but that's another story.

2. That's why you're trained to fire until threat neutralization.

I don't see where the danger clock ever started for this cop.

Maybe if the assault in the vehicle is true, but like I said, that is contradicted by the eyewitnesses accounts.

But allowing that it did, once an unarmed person retreats from you the danger is over.
