Why Professionals Don’t “Shoot To Wound”

(Before It's News)

 

CSM Robert Prosser, Mosul, Iraq, and an Iraq Insurgent that he shot four times, and who still fought him in hand-to-hand combat. The insurgent survived.

After a self-defense shooting where the aggressor dies, we often hear the same questions asked time and again.

“He didn’t have a weapon. Why was he shot in the chest/head?”

“He only had a bat/knife/fist. Why wasn’t he shot in the shoulder/arm?”

“Why didn’t they just shooting him in the arm/leg?”

When specifically discussing a shooting involving a uniformed law enforcement officer with his duty belt full of tools, we often hear, “Why didn’t they use pepper spray/nightstick/taser instead of a gun?”

One person in a unique position to answer that question is Michael Yon.
