This is a hypothetical.

Cop receives a call and comes out to a house. He finds a combative man with a gun who points the gun and the cop and threatens to shoot the cop.
Inside the house is 30 women densely arranged having a baby shower and one is pregnant. They are unaware of the man outside nor have any ties to him.

The cop shoots 12 or so times to make sure the combative man is put down. It happens the man was standing by the wall where the women are packed in and bullets rain through the wall at them.

All 30 women shot.
Later 15 of them die. 15 critically injured in the hospital.

Was the cop in the right and\or justified?

Methinks they would employ a sharpshooter in this instance. I doubt they would shoot that many times in front of a possibly occupied residence and risk a major lawsuit.

Is the cop firing a rifle or what? A standard issue gun for a cop isn't going through that many people and a wall. Unless that wall is just dry wall, but what house is entirely drywall on the outside?

I am sure it's technically possible but a lightning striking the same person every day for a week sounds more likely.

Cops carry pistols and such not fucking portable railguns shooting explosive cannonballs.

I mean I could make it just 5 women shot and killed, would it make that big a difference?

"oh just 5! carry on!"

I was refering to his Sig.

I do support Jeffs 4th though.

The other topic had nothing to do with Coops 4th though no matter how hard you try to stretch it.

He didn't shoot the kid BEHIND the dog/cover/etc.

Then yeah fair. I mean your situation would be extremely unlikely as far as the cops rounds going through a wall and hitting that many people. Most officers carry either 9mm or .40 hollow points and most homes are pretty sturdy on the outside so unless the officer shot twelve rounds through windows the odds of anyone being inadvertently shot are very, very low.

What human being can tank 12 bullets? Because otherwise he would have dropped, and almost no one else would have gotten hurt.
