Ordering cops to “shoot to kill” is not only idiotic, it’s unconstitutional. It’s not a capital offense to have a Molotov cocktail.
And “shoot to kill” is asinine in almost all cases of crowd or riot control. Name a case where someone was shot by police in a riot and it turned out better for the police or city.
Shoot to stop. “Your honor, he was doing ______, which put others’s lives in danger and I shot him to stop that harm.”
If you’re shooting for any other reason, you’re part of the problem and displaying gross dumb fuqueitide.
