Everyone even moderately competent shoots to kill. They fire most commonly at the torso until the individual is no longer a threat. Turns out that putting several bullets into someone’s body commonly kills them. Only in TV shows do people shoot people in non-vital areas to disable them and only in TV shows does shooting people in the foot or shoulder not just kill people same as shooting them anywhere else.

Small correction: they shoot with the intention of stopping the threat, not with the intention to kill. Otherwise, you’re completely correct
