I don't care if he shot them from behind as they were running down the street a month after the crime. The scum got what they deserved.
I agree with you - especially after the damage they did to the 17-year old. Just because the perps' reflexes allowed them to turn away from the gun doesn't mean you can't kill them after that kind of attack. In fact, I believe that had it been me, I would have been willing to run after them and shoot them wherever I finally caught up. I'm really happy that Mississippi finally got around to letting people to use deadly force without having to try to "give peace a chance".
I've always thought that the whole "shot in the back" thing, in relation to self defense, was a cannard. The people who "initiated" force started the whole thing. They reap what they sow.
Hurt my wife or children and I WILL hunt you down. Hang the law...
