The Part Of The Times Square Shooting Everyone Missed

About this video

Colion analyzes footage from a Times Square incident in which police shot a woman who had fatally stabbed one person and injured another. He argues that bystanders dangerously positioned themselves in the line of fire to record the event, failing to understand that missed shots can strike anyone downrange. Colion uses the incident to illustrate why response time and armed self-defense matter, contending that even fast police response couldn’t prevent the initial attack.

Key takeaways

• Colion teaches that bystanders should move perpendicular to the threat and seek cover rather than simply backing up in a straight line, as bullets travel and missed shots can hit anyone downrange
• Colion argues that even the fastest police response cannot prevent the initial moments of an attack, because responders arrive after victims have already been hurt
• Colion contends that the legal standard for use of force—whether a reasonable person would believe they face death or serious injury—applied equally to the officers in this incident and to armed citizens in self-defense situations
