You do realize that if he left without identifying his bags the entire plane would need to be unloaded and rechecked. We are discussing tangible risk factors. In this case there were three major risk factors each of which indicates a high risk.

His wife was still on board, in fact she went back to get a bag. She had already informed the marshals that her husband was sick. And after being shot Alpizar wasn't much good at id'ing bags; was he? Do you really think that it is an appropriate policy to shoot passengers who get off the plane because the baggage would have to be rechecked? I don't think you do.

And I have no idea what "three major risk factors each of which indicates a high risk" you are talking about; or how that justifies shooting an unarmed man who has already left an airplane.

What assumption do you think is proper to be made when a passenger disembarks leaving his checked bags and whatever else he may have left and refuses to be stopped by authorities?
