They are authorized to use lethal force, yes, but it is only practical to do so when the lives of others or themselves are in danger.

And nowadays, they aren't well-versed in the art of defusing situations peacefully. Police training should shape up somewhat, as the alternatives to shooting are many, but unused.

Sort of a straw man argument for a few reasons. First of all, yes there are people calling for disarming some police. There are many countries where cops don't bring guns to traffic stops or if they're just filling out a police report for a robbery that already happened. Second of all, nobody is calling for complete removal of all guns from society entirely so it makes sense to say in a case where 20-50 people are killed by someone who should've never had a semi-automatic weapon, that stricter gun control could've helped to prevent some or all of those deaths, while when trained and licensed police officers kill people, it's a structural issue that needs to be dealt with in a different way.

No, but the people you associate with (in person or online) believe that all cops are murderers of minorities. Blame the cop for shooting someone, including unarmed "innocents," but blame the gun when someone shoots up a school. In both cases, the gun did nothing.

Applies whenever *anyone* has a gun pointed at you . . . Don’t piss them off.

There's a good reason we think that. You people make it easy.

Who is 'pro-mass-shooter'? That is asinine. Keep blaming the NRA and the 2nd Amendment. What's funny about blaming the NRA though is it's not their members commuting mass shootings.
1 up, 7y
So true. The NRA does not advocate using guns at all times. It encourages the right to use them, as well as the safety precautions that come with it.

Oh please. First you call us pro-mass shooters because we are defending the 2nd Amendment. And then you try to convince us that you are not blaming guns.

Why is so many people wanting to ban guns if you are not blaming guns?
If you all believe it is the individual's fault you would be for different changes such as the teaching of morals. Punishments for crime. Discipline, in school and at home. And you might want to cut back on the sale of violent video games such as GTA series that normalizes shooting people. You play a criminal who shoots police and civilians. Do not tell me that this doesn't normalize such crimes to certain individuals.

But that is not what I hear, all I hear is gun control. "This wouldn't happen if we banned guns." You all are blaming guns. Don't act like you're not!
