2020 US Presidential Election

An officer should only shoot their gun if there is fear of a threat to life. Here is more on unholstering your gun: The rules for when and if an officer should unholster their firearm are vague. It’s basically up to the “discretion of the officer.” If an officer draws their firearm and can claim that they had reasonable fear and needed to be prepared to use force “up to and including deadly force,” then they are typically free from departmental scrutiny. In response to the Standard listener Michael Harper, Staton says “there has never been a requirement or a rule or a constitutional standard that says that drawing your firearm is a reportable use of force.” Staton says it’s not actually a use of force. There are some agencies that require officers to report when they’ve drawn their firearms. But, that’s the “minority of agencies, not the majority.”

do you know the first rule of proper gun ownership? never point your gun at something your not prepared to kill so ill ask again do you think it was reasonable to say a cop should only draw their guns on someone that they fear to be a threat?
