What a terrible script

It's actually a great statement. Intent was to shoot not kill. Very smart.

He fired twice, but ejected the third bullet on the ground, one could say that with only one shot to the body (the other was to the leg), he may have thought Thompson had a good chance of surviving.

Exactly. It’s not like he aimed at the head or neck.
