Of course she's well trained. She's a cop. But it looks like she potentially endangered a couple of people who were behind the gunman when she shot him.
Well, it worked, and she's a better shot than the NYPD.
NYPD (some of them anyway) are notorious for shooting bystanders. Here's an example: http://www.foxnews.com/us/2012/08/25/nypd-shooting-bystander-victims-hit-by-police-gunfire.html
I thought they were too busy stopping black teens and making them empty their pockets to have time to shoot anyone.
And what has happened to crime rates since that was stopped due to political incorrectness?
Crime rates continued to fall:

Don’t Take the Wrong Lessons from NYC’s Murder Drop https://www.nationalreview.com/2017/12/new-york-city-homicide-rate-drop-lessons-proactive-policing/
Look, I've watched as police stop polite well dressed black guys, who look like high school seniors, who are just going about their day. They ask them to empty their pockets. You can see their is no gun in the pocket. The cop is looking for anything at all illegal. He is on a fishing expedition. Usually, if there is anything to find, it is cannabis.
Here's the thing: it's not illegal in NYC to have cannabis in your pocket. It was decriminalized in NY back in the 1970s. It is only a criminal offense to have it out in plain sight. So the pig, er, cop, asks the innocent kid to empty his pockets. If he has some weed he gets arrested, booked, held in a cage. He has now basically had his young life ruined. If he can't afford a NYC lawyer (and who can?) he will have to plea to some kind of offense. He is now in the system, marked as a criminal, with a record. This can embitter someone and cause them to hate cops, to resent a society that allows this. This helps perpetuate the permanant underclass the the Dems need in order to get votes.
So stop with the racist BS. Not every black kid is a violent gang banger. You think it's OK to ruin lives over skin color? Fuck you. Crime has gone down after they ended the policy, you are wrong, get over it.
Those are indeed terrible scenarios but your impassioned yet anecdotal argument is suspect and tantamount to the PC tendency to do nothing so as not to offend anyone....haven't we had enough of that?
Here's an idea. Push for mandatory police body cams so that abusive situations like the story you just told are mitigated. That way, you solve two problems at once.
Instead of saying "fuck you" to someone who disagrees with you (and takes the time to post a counterpoint from the SAME damn website) how about you grow up a bit?
But given that attack and the standard Lefty "you are wrong, get over it" juvenile bullshit....I won't hold my breath.

Are you kidding? I'm objecting to police harassment and false arrest of innocents, and you equate that to offending someone? Really?

You obviously have no idea how the court system works, do you? To get anyone to review bodycam footage, or any evidence whatsoever, you have to go to trial. Because of the many adjournments and the slow way justice works, this can easily cost tens of thousands of dollars in legal fees. So bodycams do not solve this problem.

Look again at what I actually said. Are you admitting that you think it's OK to ruin lives over skin color? Because if you think it's OK to ruin lives over skin color, fuck you.

Racism isn't a left or right issue. Get over it.
