**”We don’t have the luxury of hind sight,” Armenteros said. “We have to use the information that is given to us in a split second. So, the officer has to make that decision with the information that he has available.”**
So, that same rationale should apply to me (equal protection under the law) if I shoot someone in my home, or outside my home. If it is OK for police to kill to prevent a dangerous situation, it should be allowable for the public.
Resllly, so pulling out your gun before a door opens is making a “split second decision”, now?
If a non cop went to a cop’s house and pulled out his gun when he heard the cop’s dog barking, would he receive the same soft gloved treatment?
