I wonder the same.
Even further:
If a CCW uses force to save a civilian in such a situation ,then what?
“If a CCW uses force to save a civilian in such a situation ,then what?”
You raised a most difficult issue - “Does the armed citizen have the right to use lethal force to prevent serious bodily injury or death if the attacker is in uniform?”
Given that LEO’s wear body armor and that the CCW citizen probably does not, would the citizen not need far more firepower than a handgun?
How many citizens travel with a weapon able to penetrate armor?
Assuming the citizen was fired upon by the LEO’s committing the assumed felony, and the citizen then shot or killed some or all of the felonious LEO’s, what legal ramifications might exist?
Are there any lawyers reading this thread?
At one time it was safe to consider the police your friend. That is no longer the case.
The individual concerned should already have a valid last will and testament, as the police will prompty terminate
the individual/threat.
