He just shot two people. The fact he wasn’t shooting didn’t mean he intended to stop.

Let’s put it this way. You are in a store carrying your Concealed weapon. A guy comes in and shoots a clerk and a customer. Are you going to play judge and jury and execute him or obey the rule of law and presume he is innocent?

They fired a tear gas canister BTW.

Should I burn the store down? That was really a rather obtuse comparison. Not even close to the same situation. In the store I do not have the suspect contained nor do I have the ability to stay away from his fire.

They aren’t called incendiary smoke bombs for nothing. The intent was clearly fire.

I would pull back so he would stop firing to conserve ammo. Or maybe wing him and wait for him to bleed out. Oh, and look for a bullhorn. ;)
