Uhh, they do when they don't understand when it's appropriate to deploy deadly force.
Most of you morons here think it's legal to shoot a criminal in the back while they are attempting to flee.
You've probably heard the old joke about how the Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco and Firearms should be a convenience store not a federal agency, but the latest ATF screw up in Wisconsin proves they aren't even capable of doing that properly. From the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel:
A store calling itself Fearless Distributing opened early last year on an out-of-the-way street in Milwaukee's Riverwest neighborhood, offering designer clothes, athletic shoes, jewelry and drug paraphernalia.
Those working behind the counter, however, weren't interested in selling anything.
They were undercover agents from the U.S....
Ordinary citizen Bernard Goetz,on a NYC subway traincar(a tight space),managed to shoot FOUR young thugs (armed with screwdrivers)who tried to rob him,and didn't hit a single bystander. NYC doesn't have much in the way of gun ranges where people can go practice,and handguns aren't allowed there anyways. So it's reasonably safe to say that Goetz was NOT "well-trained",yet didn't "spray bullets" or harm any innocents. Clearly self-defense is not as tricky as some people would have us believe.
