here is a case where an armed robber grapples with a man
and loses his gun....and gets shot multiple times
http://www.cnycentral.com/news/story.aspx?id=487787
this is a good example that even the regular non-carrying citizen
needs to know the laws on use of force...and excessive use of force...
he stopped the threat, which is okay
it was the bullet to the head, when he was down, that got him the
murder charge, in what was at first thought to be a good self defense
shoot
might it have been the heat of the moment that got him to go too far?
or should a even a reasonable non carrying person know that the one
to the back of the head was a big no no?
for sure the adrenaline is surging, but this shows that even non gunners
need to know the laws when it comes to self defense
edit: one bullet to the BACK of his head......
