In an ABC News town hall last week, Democratic Presidential candidate Joe Biden proffered use of force advice to law enforcement that is being widely panned. "You can ban chokeholds, but beyond that you have to teach people how to de-escalate circumstances, de-escalate," said Biden. "So instead of anybody coming at you and the first thing you do is shoot to kill, you shoot 'em in the leg."

If you have the option to shoot someone in the leg, they don't need to be shot.
Biden is an A$$. |

If you shoot someone in the leg, don't admit that you aimed there. It would be difficult to support that "you feared for your life" if you shoot someone in the leg on purpose.
A leg shot is not shooting to stop the threat. |

TO REMEMBER |
| After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
