Let's say that you're a police officer and shoot your gun at a
criminal, but the coriolis force is so strong that the bullet
doesn't go where you aimed it and instead hits a innocent citizen.
Hello law suits!

Do you think that with enough training that coriolis compensation
could be factored into the aiming process? For instance, to hit your
target at 200 meters, aim 5 meters over their head and 10 meters to
your right.

Damn, that would really look odd in a cops & robbers movie set in a
Habitat. You know the kind, the fish out of water type. Like Arnold
playing a Russian cop in "Red Heat", or Jackie Chan in "Rush Hour."
We get some L.A. cop to come up to the Habitat and he needs to shoot
his gun but his local partner stops him and says to aim at the
little girl and her mother if he wants to hit the fleeing felon on
the other side of the park :) Ripe for comedy.
