I can only hope that any forum member that gets into a Self Defense shooting has video of this caliber backing them up.

Excellent example of LEO's properly doing their job.

The officer reacted as trained and executed perfectly. Let that stupid kid learn a lesson, next time, there no pain, just a black out for a long long time.

Not meaning to sound like Travis Bickle, but are you talking to me? If you were the point of my statement regarding the Tueller Drill is, in similar situations it has been demonstrated that an assailant with a knife can easily cover 7-10 yard prior to most drawing and firing. In my opinion, 18' is within 7 yards and thus is too close (i.e. close enough to pose a deadly threat to the officer).

18 feet is plenty close Tueller Drill, Tueller Drill, Tueller Drill.
