What are these circumstances? Like, triple homicide? Maybe? Even then, isn't the best course of action to just continue to chase and apprehend so they can stand trial? As best you can? Certainly not a non-violent crime like a drug deal or a theft... right? Seriously I struggle with thinking of any good reason to fire on someone running away unless they are proven to be the Zodiac or something.

You’re telling me if someone pointed a gun at you, you’ll wait til they shoot to shoot back? I call bs.

I'm not a police officer! I don't have a gun at work. I'm far too much of a coward for that.

And yeah, if you rob a store and are waving a gun around or are high on pcp waving a gun around you’re probably gonna get shot.

So taking PCP and having a gun is a reasonable state to expect being shot at, but being a police officer who deals with anything from that person with the PCP and the gun to gang wars, is not?
