You're absolutely right about this.
And whenever cops shoot someone because that someone was endangering people's lives, the mainstream media loves to show reactions of people who are outraged about it. Just last night, this guy in a truck dragged a cop for several minutes and the cop had to kill the guy. They show a shot of the guy's mother being outraged about it. How could that guy's mother still love him after what he did? How? They should have showed the reaction of the passenger in the truck who was probably glad that the cop killed the guy and wished the cop killed the guy sooner.
