The only thing I can see going wrong with that, is that if an officer discharges his weapon with the "thinking" that its non lethal and either something goes wrong or the suspect ends up dying. I think deploying that first shot would change the psyche of the officer, in that they really wouldn't see it as being lethal and discharging their weapon should always be seen as a last resort. It could work though, but I wonder about how it would affect the number of incidents of shootings.
