Jeez just saw the video on Instagram. Looks like the cop blasted some old dude with glasses too. Tragedy

it's not when you realize the guy has zero survival instinct, and the cop had zero “combat” training

What is 'combat' training exactly?

She did exactly as she was trained to. She got scared and responded immediately with lethal force. That's the combat training cops get.

It's utterly irresponsible as a gun owner to not acknowledge that this is what the training is for. You don't exactly drill your draw, acquire, and shoot if your plan is to take a breather and calmly evaluate the situation.
