Shoot to wound/disarm is a TV/movie trope.
Aim center mass & shoot to kill. Otherwise, don't shoot.
Nonsense. There's a time for lethal force, and that time is VERY rare compared to how often it's used by present day police. My town's police hadn't discharged a firearm in over a decade, but a recent incident resulted in an officer shooting someone... in the leg. TWICE. AFTER he was fired upon.
