    It is his job and duty not to. If he arrived to the welfare check and immediately turned around and left…?

    Even though this is a cherry picked argument - a melee weapon - I’m not sure it will help your point. Cops get stabbed, man. It happens even with their shoot first training.

      I didn’t say turn around and leave.

      I said back away.

      You know, out of knife range?

      Was it a house-sized knife or something?
