I said: “I’m not the one advocating summary executions by police officers.”

You said: Neither did I.

So, let’s look at what you did say:

“The cops killed the jackass after he had endangered others and wasn’t stopping.”

“Seems killing the predator was appropriate.”

“With those events in mind, he lost all rights to live IMHO.”

“I believe ALL predators give up their right to live as we have the right to protect ourselves from them and stop them by any means at our disposal.”

I’d say that you have described and advocated what I would call summary execution and you don’t limit it to police officers. If these are not really your opinions, perhaps you ought to clarify.

“summary execution “

If you knew what the phrase meant you wouldn’t have said that. Summary execution is execution after apprehension. That kid wasn’t apprehended, he was attempting to continue his rampage. How do you expect cops to stop a motorized vehicle when the driver is determined to not be stopped? You stop the driver. They did.

If you don’t want to get killed then don’t drive dangerously through the streets and refuse to stop doing it. You had better hope the cops get to you first. You do that around me I’ll probably stop you the same way they did.
