No, it doesn't actually. No amount of wishful thinking from you can change the facts.

If they can't hit what they are aiming at....at that range they ought have their Glocks taken off them. I can group pretty well at my age (21) using a very aged range .22 Smith & Wesson revolver at 25 yards. If they (aged 80) can't hit a shoulder, or a leg of a slow moving person at about at most 5 metres, they should not have a gun.

slow moving? they'd have that much adrenaline pumping they'd be lucky to hit a barn door, let alone a leg

At the Farmer's Market at Hornsby today a psychopath went crazy with a knife at the Shopping Centre. Two Police Women were first on the scene and footage on Channel 9 News showed the incident when the shooting occurred.

"Assistant Commissioner Clifford said he understood two officers, a male and a female, fired their weapons during the incident."

Okay. Another reason they should not have a gun. It's not as though they are not prepared/trained for this sort of event, and that training is self evidently pathetic and superficial.

What happened to flight?

She didnt miss, its clear that she didnt fire at centre mass as trained to do. Lost her nerve and shot him in the legs and hit bystanders. This is why females should not be in these sorts of roles, they can not be relied on. This could have been really ugly if someone elses life depended on her doing her job properly. She needs to resign or get a loss of confidence letter. Disgrace.

Thoughts, ian?
