Since you are an expert what are those options. What does stand your ground have to do with a police officer in this situation? Apparently you don't know what "stand your ground" laws mean. If a person has a knife in their hands they are NOT unarmed and defenseless. A person with a knife can cause severe injuries and death to the person they are attacking. Back in the late 80's in Mexico there were more knife homicides than homicides by all means (knives, bludgeons, guns, feet, fists, etc.) in the United States so don't think a knife is a toy. Self defense is not murder. I didn't know that the police unions could suspend laws. If the police officer is guilty of a crime the union can't do anything about the officer being charged, tried and convicted. The union is not a court of law or above it.
