"The point we should all be taking is that the man over-reacted and is likely going to pay very dearly for his actions."
I doubt it. He acted entirely within the law.

If your wife gets in an accident, does she get assault with a deadly weapon? Really, the question doesn't even need to be asked. That charge is reserved for nimwits fleeing police who choose stupidly to ram, touch, or graze a police vehicle as well as other examples.
2) The IDPA/IPSC/Whatever guy was dumb, period.

Again, he didn't know they were violent because he didn't witness the crime nor did he know that they were felons, nor did he know that they were fleeing.
After witnessing Tuesday’s armed jewelry robbery, Naples jewelry store owner Sandy Thalheimer exchanged the first shot at armed suspects fleeing the scene
(the above statement is the police spokesman's quote.)A violent felony was being committed in (Thalheimer’s) presence and he took the steps he felt necessary,” Barkley said
however, a person who UNintentionally kills an innocent person while driving can be convicted of vehicular homicide and go to prison as well. DUI's are a good example.
also I will point out the other post didn't say it had to be a police vehicle

And which guns are my IDPA friends using when they are not at a match? Probably NOT the gun they shot the match with.
Those who train to defeat their enemies, but also compete in the gun games at a high level know that the two are not the same.
What I will tell you is that police training IS IDPA training... with a lot less targets and a lot less movement.
When the target faces draw and fire two rounds.... When the target faces draw and fire one round standing and two rounds kneeling.... When the target faces draw and fire two rounds....etc.........
It's paper....all training is paper.
There is no tactical training except PAPER. It's all paper anyway. What training are you talking about where people engage real life targets with real weapons and really shoot people? You either practice on paper or read a book.
