One Too Many: Shot Count in Self Defense Shooting

Just how many rounds does it take to stop evil... I defer to Aug 26, Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd stated "We shot him a lot" Or better yet in July 2021, "Quite frankly, we weren’t taking any chances. That’s all the bullets we had or we would have shot him more. I suspect the only reason 110 rounds was all that was fired was that’s all the ammunition they had. We were not going to take any chance of him shooting back.” -Polk County, FL Sheriff Grady Judd.
Well if the Po Po SWAT Boys have to ensure the baddie is neutralized, well...

Respectfully that pound in the chest BS sounds all great. Problem as private citizen you do not have an agency backing you up!
Ask Officer Toni McBride of LAPD (link below) who is still in a legal battle because she shot a suspect with 6 rounds instead of 4.
And why I encourage everyone (even agency trained and rubber stamped agency Instructors) to take Hohn Hearns excellent Cognitive Handgun With Tactical Anatomy and or Chuck Haggard or Steve Moses and Dr Andy Anderson Tactical Anatomy course
Why half second split times are your friend
Appellate court reverses qualified immunity decision, revives lawsuit against LAPD officer
While Officer Toni McBride was initially granted qualified immunity in a 2020 shooting, an appellate court found that the shots fired while the suspect was on the ground were not within policy

Chest beating or the difference in respect to the situation based on the Region and the elected DA's respect for the job that they could not do. One of the first lessons in the Academy was, 'You will judged for months over a decision you make in a split second!"Respectfully that pound in the chest BS sounds all great.

So the "BS" is in the response to a question about a number, that shouldn't even be asked and thus shown disrespect as the answer will never satisfy. Ask anyone that has been fighting for their life in a gunfight. If one is counting rounds, it is for the reload, not for a press release...
