This has been gone over before, but it is a good reminder. Aiming at a smaller target that is moving a lot, such as arms and legs, is a recipe for missed shots and potential danger to the public from those. Officers, and military personnel as far as I know, are taught to shoot center mass. You aim at the biggest target which is the torso. If you're off, you still hit the target, just maybe not in an ideal spot. Aiming at extremities is a high level risk.

In addition, an extremity shot is not a guarantee to just be a wounding shot. There are some large blood vessels in the extremities that if even nicked will cause a lot of blood loss.

OK, I guess that makes sense.

Just to clarify again, of course imho this guy had it coming 100% and I don't quite get how this is controversial even.
