@thegiaR Not unless it's CARTEL in armored TANKS they build love to see that more often in AMERICA COPS dying for huge GUN FIGHT and CARTEL are utter scum murderers who need to get shot to death..TIME TO SEND COPS TO JUAREZ in cars with everything they want all of it!!! SWAT Body Armor whole ten yards !

Anyone would think that to shoot at a cop would be madness, matbe thats where the answer lies?? Also the fact that the US goverment allows just about anyone to own a gun stands them as mad as she was!!!! Who do you blame the person who pulled the trigger or the person who gave her the gun????

@Corporate765 I'm more inclined to think that it's because the .38 special is a very low-power round. It has very low penetration and damage potential compared to other rounds. Getting shot in the face (not the forehead, mind), even twice, can leave you with a decent chance of survival if you get medical attention quickly.

She shot him twice in the head and he lived? Goes to show how incompetent women are. Stay in a woman's place and the world is better off.

@SwindleCon Perhaps the clerk knew nothing of her illness, and we can safely assume he/she didn't. What puzzles me most is how do these reporters know (if truly anything) much about what the conversation and or actions were between the cop and the lady? Sure a dash-cam, but where is it?
