I am glad that you appreciate it. For some reason or another some folks get all indignant and $hit.
Might be because you're a stupid phhucker talking out your ass?

You ability to to laugh out loud at this horrfic incidence is a bit strange, in a bad way.
Your reluctance to join a PD and pin on a badge and buckle up some armour is telling while you spout off behind you keyboard. He made a call, he didn't have the shot and didn't take a risky shot.
Backing up to shoot/don't shoot. That decision was the officer's. It does not lie with the supervisor. I'll explain why. The supervisor wasn't there. Crazy tactical concept huh? For Burns and the rest of you not familiar with Law Enforcment 101. Every officer is trained and empowered to make shoot/don't shoot decisions on their own. It is one of the most fundamental principles of LE. As I wrote earlier, my criticism is not of the officer passing on the shot. It is of him seeking permission from his supervisor. Hint, there's a reason the experts highlighted this in their timeline.
Dumbshitts like you would have killed a school coach and maybe even a few kids in the background with your shoot first / PID later bullschitt. His supervisor was there and saw kids in the background and no PID on the guy in black.

One of those officers testified to the Committee that, based on the sound of echoes, he believed the shooter had fired in their direction.114 That officer saw children dressed in bright colors in the playground, all running away. Then, at a distance exceeding 100 yards, he saw person dressed in black, also running away. Thinking that the person dressed in black was the attacker, he raised his rifle and asked Sgt. Coronado for permission to shoot.115
Sgt. Coronado testified he heard the request, and he hesitated. He knew there were children present. He considered the risk of shooting a child, and he quickly recalled his training that officers are responsible for every round that goes downrange.116
According to the officer who made the request, there was no opportunity for Sgt. Coronado to respond before they heard on the radio that the attacker was running toward the school. The officers testified to the Committee that it turned out that the person they had seen dressed in black was not the attacker, but instead it was Robb Elementary Coach Abraham Gonzales.117
Coach Gonzales had been on his way to the parking lot to leave the school after his lunch duty when he heard a gunshot and then Coach Garcia’s report about the attacker over the radio. He told the children around him to run away.118
I was right once yet again. Seems to be a trend.
You and Travis should partner up in a bike riding/tactical training school.
