    Here in not-america we generally don’t kill people who are not an imminent threat, like someone who has been disarmed.

    I’ve seen the video of the guy being disarmed and moving away towards the bridge, but not the part where he re-armed himself.

    Even if, in this particular case, the perp did rearm and injured more people, our hesitance to shoot someone who is not an imminent threat has no doubt prevented the deaths of many thousands of people over the years.
