I couldn't care less why this criminal was shot. Had he not broken our laws and contributed to a problem that's destroying our nation he wouldn't be dead now. I won't shed any tear for any illegal who dies on U.S. soil no matter what. If you're not on our soil you won't die on it. Illegal immigration is completely out of control and it's ruining this nation. There will be a major conflict in the the future and everyone who ignored the problem or supported open borders can take responsibility for the violence.
Emotions aside, I'm not sure you want to live in a society where those that have sworn to uphold our laws, are not beholden to them and break them themselves without consequences. We are supposed to be the civilized ones, and we don't summarily execute people in the streets or out in the woods. I wholeheartedly agree with interdiction efforts and deportations, but there must be a sense of proportion for "criminal" activity. Breaking a misdemeanor law should not warrant the death penalty.
