You believe he was aiming for the wing mirror from astride a moving motorcycle?

The usual transfer must be deemed to strict a punishment this time...

Had a argument with his girlfriend. Well I hope he doesn’t shoot that quickly when he’s with her.

The fruitcake should get the sack, gun confiscated and given some jail time.

He should know that a gun round can end up anywhere over quite a distance, even one diverted by a wing mirror. He was lucky it didn't end up injuring someone.

The bus driver taking off may have saved the girl's life too....

Castration may be more appropriate to ensure his malfunctioning genes do not get passed on

Oh come on. Slap his hand with a ruler and call him a bad boy, give him a smaller gun possibly better being a taser, and make him kiss the feet of the owner of the bus.

No joke can make it less scary than the obvious emotional insecurity of a person empowered to carry a weapon indicates  he should never have become a policeman. Next he might have emptied his gun into the back of a man in a wheelchair ! Ooops!
