yes, but it has to be more then just "disobeying" to justify shooting him dead. "disobyeing" needs a context to it - if some person who claims to be an air marshall, comes over to me on a flight and orders me to stow my tray table and shoots me if I don't - there is a different context to "disobeying" that order, as opposed to if I were running down the aisle after making a bomb threat.

Didn't you hear the reports that he starting reaching into his bag as the officers were shouting the commands to "get on the ground"?

Nevermind, I don't want to know.
