You are an idiot, and a very poor student of history. The moment you continue to shoot after the threat is reasonably removed, you can and will be charged with murder.

You shoot someone after they are down on the ground and not actively moving, it’s very easy to detect, and you will be charged, and convicted.

Drag a body into your house? You need to stop watching bad movies.

Please stop with this idiotic advice. You will get a good person put into prison for what might otherwise be a justified shooting.

Good advice!

Use maximum force until the bad guy is down and then shoot no more. At the point he is no longer a threat you should use any skill you have to give aid to the bad guy. That will go a long way in court on the good guys side.

This is not true. As long as a person has given you (or another person) reasonable reason to fear for life or safety, you are justified to continue to take whatever means you need to eliminate the threat. If he is moving, you can continue to shoot. If he is a threat, then moving is considered a threat.

The fact that we have crazy DAs out there who will try to charge you for nothing is not relevant. They will try to charge you no matter what.

If (God forbid), I ever have to shoot someone, I will empty the mag, with the knowledge that I will probably be financially destroyed....at least re: assets they can find.
