Police said Shamia Johnson is facing several charges after she shot her grandfather, pointed a gun at a driver, and caused two hit-and-run accidents.Yeah, that's why they waited around at Columbine, too. For our safety.
Despite the laws Johnson was breaking, at no time did police engage her in a chase...Deputy Chief Dave Stephens said the department's policy didn't allow for a chase in this case.
"Our policy regarding pursuits allows the pursuit only in a situation of a felony dangerous to life," he said...
"That policy has been enacted for the protection of public safety because the risk of pursuit far outweighs the benefit from arresting the person," said Stephens.
"Public safety" is the stated reason for every "gun control" edict on the books. Somehow, I don't feel safer.

A police spokesman went on to assure the public that if she had been dangerously unarmed and non-threatening they would have had one of their valued and experienced veterans of the police force shoot her in the back to show that they were prepared for anything.
