Problem is if you keep shooting after the threat has ceased. Self-defense becomes murder at that point. Don’t go there.

Not necessarily. If there is a break in the action, maybe so. The shooter needs to know or believe the threat is over. If he stops shooting and has a cup of coffee before finishing off the criminal, yes, could be trouble.

That would be the problem. i would be so freaked I would shoot until all bullets were gone then I would be arrested for murder in this perfect world.
