There are ways to defuse a situation not entirely calmly without firing a gun.

I didn't say it was not criminal, only that it would have had no injuries.

The person who shot did it directly, without actually showing what was he carrying. Just showing the gun would have had a better effect with no injuries and no arrest, and that already is going over the top.

You are an asshole for defending getting hurt for this. I want to assume you would not be so eager to go against the kid if it was your family member.

There was no reason for the person to be shot. Disgusting.
