Lmfao, ''leg shots inhumane'' but killing isn't? I don't know about y'all, but the U.S. police is on some third world country level.

Killing a guy because he is wielding a knife... No warning shots, nothing besides ''BACK OFF I'LL SHOOT''? Dude might be an idiot but doing what they did is laughable and straight up grade F police work. I mean, if that shit had happened over here the cops would have tried to calm him down and cough him, if it didn't work and he brings forth a knife they'd yell people to back off and 1 of the officers would go in circles to shield people away from him and end up having an officer on both sides. If he tried to launch at someone they'd narrow him down before he got to them. Mainly; keep him at a distance, call back-up and let a dog handle the business. And what about the taser you got over there? This is just fucked up...

No reason to kill/shoot the guy in this situation. Those people suck and should be discharged. I mean, serve and protect goes ways, the cops are there to protect the citizens as good as they can. Last time I checked criminals are citizens too.
