Cops shouldn't have access to anything that could potentially blow off a person's hand, especially not a thing made to be used in public.

Again, that's irrelevant.

I don't really disagree, this is not a conversation about how police should be armed.

If you're trying to describe the event, "a cop blew off a students hand" is very obviously a misrepresentation.

You're welcome to make a case that the cop shouldn't have been there or shouldn't have been armed, but "a cop blew off a students hand" does not describe what happened.
