Actually, JUSTICE WILL HAVE BEEN SERVED if the "kill" portion has been accomplished.
My wife had never fired any type of gun until we were married. I taught her how to shoot a pistol. She has a Beretta Tomcat .32, with hollow points loaded. She asked when shooting one day, "how do I learn to shoot to hit them in the arm or leg, to wound them, to stop them?" I told her she would never be that good, heck I am not THAT good that I can have the time, wits, etc. to shoot an attacking person in the arm or leg. I told her all the liberals scream why didn't you just wound him. I told her they have never been in that situation, with an attacker coming, that you could just calmly stand there and take one shot and hit them in the arm, like in the movies, and stop the attacker. I told her, YOU AIM FOR CENTER BODY MASS. No where else. Hit him there. Keep hitting him there till he drops.
The police will still have to do the paperwork. But compared to hunting down and trying such an animal, that's pretty easy. If you only stop and wound him, then they don't have to go looking, but still have do the paperwork and the trial.
But I agree.
