I wish you could see my eyes roll as I type that ...
I think the whole concept of disparity of force is a bunch of bs ... bad guy needs taking down ... then take em down ..what ever it takes.
Sure a jay walker shouldn't be mowed down ..but shoot at some one, even strike someone .... violence can be answered with violence. But I bet the twit gets a payday ... it's a strange world.
I apologize for misreading your post. I agree with everything you wrote.
