There was a mass shooting in Canada and a female cop at the scene did the following;

>Didn't even check on her partner after he went down right next to her
>Ventilated a random terrified civilian who was running away from the shooter, also didn't check on him
>Ran away from the shooter herself, leaving her partner to die​
>Got shot 6 times in the back
@Shadowman311 Oh shit, the civilian was shot by the cops? I thought it was the suspect that did it. Foid cops are literally more of a danger to society than a random shooter.
@Druid You can see clear as day she aims at the civilian and fires
@Shadowman311 I see it now, the old guy in the black tshirt running away from the shots and she just shoots him as he comes around the corner of that planter.

@Druid @Shadowman311 if we're being completely honest, any random cop male or female would probably do the same thing if there's a guy running at you from the same place the shooter is lighting you up from. it's extremely unfortunate but if you don't take that shot and it turns out it was the guy, you're dead instead. it's much easier for us, looking from a bird's eye view hours later, to make that judgement call.

her partner going down crawls away while she's trying to hold position. running over to check on him at that point would be compromising herself.

running away and not neutralizing the threat, on the other hand, is the actual problem here. at the very least, you want to hold him there for as long as possible before backup can arrive. neutralize threat, then check on officer/civilian. you chose to be a cop, you chose to put your life on the line, you need to do that in order to protect everyone else then that's what you gotta' do.
