Lets see. She slashed her mother and if I were a cop, you want me to try what? I have an idea. Why don't YOU try being a cop and wondering what you should do when the situation arises. Yes, a lot of them are jerks. However, in this case, your cousin went over the line with a knife. If she had come at me with a knife, I'd have shot her with a couple of 45 rounds and called it a day too. I can't expect more of them. Cops are not there to get cut up like meat. Yes, we are talking of a 120# teenager. I am 200# but I have had my butt kicked by a 100# girl. You never know what is going on in that person's head. How do I know she is not hopped up on something? They had ordered her to drop the knife and she refused. The question to those who think it is excessive force. Would YOU tackle someone in that state. I wouldn't. If you came into my house with a knife, should I play 20 questions or just put 2 in the head? I'd go for the latter and ask questions later. When it is my ass or yours, it is my ass. Now, if in tackling that delinquent an officer gets killed, what then? You absolutely sure that because you are 120# and there are 5 of us 200# people we are invincible and won't get killed? You going to gaurantee that?
