Brandishing knives at the high school = shot by school resource officer

My wife and I just watched the segment on the NBC evening news, which included video of the kid brandishing the knives and being shot.  We both agreed that stupidity should be painful; perhaps there would be less of it, then.

Standard lead-in to the video: "This video contains images that may be disturbing ... blah, blah, blah."

And then they edited out the part where the kid gets shot. They should have left it in -- more kids need to understand that, in the real world, when you get shot it hurts, and you don't get to reset and start over.

Generally I'm not overly fond of the "thin blue line" and typically look askance at most shootings by cops I see on the web.  Here, not so much.  Someone pulls a knife in a threatening manner against others, shooting the one with the knife is just reasonable and proper

It is much more powerful to seek Truth for one's self.  Seeing and hearing that others seem to have found it can be a motivation.  With me, I was drawn because of much error and bad judgment on my part. Confronting one's own errors and bad judgment is a very life altering situation.  Confronting the errors and bad judgment of others is usually hypocrisy.

Let's see, you pull a knife at a school, just over a week after a spree stabber got himself shot and killed?

That's just asking to get shot yourself.

Why didn't the cop shoot the knofe out of the kid's hand?  The cop could have shot him im the leg!  All the kid needed was a hug.

If you look at the video closely the kid was clearly responding to a SD situation.  He only pulled that knife because all the people running away from him had just wrestled away his gun/taser/billy and were going to reach 20 yards, turn and come back to attack.

There's no fair jury on earth that would convict him for defending himself from that shooter.  I saw it on conservativetreehouse.

Heavily edited video . . .

What's with this news video cr@p we see all over these days where only the middle of the picture is clear and the sides are blurred out?   :facepalm:

I would have just shot the blade off of the knife, less chance of injuring his young, innocent fingers.  Admittedly I haven't seen that done on TV, but I can imagine it so it must be possible.

The blurred sides are because the video is in vertical orientation but our TVs and computers use a horizontal orientation to view video.  The blurred sides are just a way to fill up the edge of the video box.

And if the knife edge split your bullet in two, sending both halves into the crowd at high speed?   :O

He's white? How'd this even make the news, then?

(Checks the link) Oh, BRITISH news. Of course. Because the American news media can't use this to forward the narrative.

I wish the Ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.

So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world, Frodo, besides the will of evil. Bilbo was meant to find the Ring. In which case, you also were meant to have it. And that is an encouraging thought
