Tennessee cops shoot 59 rounds to kill one man

[unloved]

Obviously, I don't know what really happened here, but in general I think that if police have to shoot, the number of rounds fired is irrelevant. If deadly force is warranted, then it's warranted. One round, or a hundred, it doesn't matter. If they were justified in firing one shot, they were justified in firing as many as necessary to stop the threat.

That's what I think too.

I bet some cops would love to have that policy for baton strikes too lol

59 rounds fired at the guy with 43 hitting him, all of these .45 cal.
I agree the guy was most likely an "A-Hole", probably had a record half a mile long, and should not have had a weapon in the first place, but WTF????
These cops are supposed to be professional.

Well maybe the guy was a zombie!! Anyone ever consider that???


In all seriousness, I'm a fan of keep hittin em till they don't twitch... Sometimes it takes 1 sometimes it takes 101.

If it takes that many you must be a very bad shot.
