A guy who was known as a anti-gun-violence activist attacked a woman in public in broad daylight and got shot by the police for his troubles. That’s straightforward enough… but this headline is a little grammatically *off*.

Man Killed by Officer Known for Anti-Gun Violence Campaign

See, it wasn’t the police officer known for “anti-gun violence campaign,” but the actual criminal. He had previously spent time in prison for murder, so this particular end to his story isn’t exactly shocking. but at least he didn’t die a hypocrite: he attacked a woman with a knife, not a gun. Gotta have standards, I suppose.

A better headline:

Knife-wielding man fatally shot by police was activist who created ‘no-shoot zones’

Something else to note here: the police officer shot him *14* times and he was still somewhat functional. He did an complete mag dump and reloaded. So anyone saying that “you don’t need more than ten rounds” is silly. Not only because “professionals” often use well over that number, but use that just on one guy. Imagine being set upon by three or four antagonists in a chaotic situation
