And if they hide among innocent civilians, there is nothing that can be done to prevent their harm. We do not allow murderers and bank robbers to run free to continue their terror in this country, even if they abduct innocent bystanders. We use force to stop them. And if they shoot at the police, they are killed on the spot. It’s called self-defense, in case the liberals don’t understand.
