[QUOTE="MLR, post: 1592952, member: 2176"] Actually you and I are in total agreement on how the rule is meant. What I was referring to was when this rule is invoked to cover a bad shooting. Such as when an innocent person is shot. Such as when a person is shot while reaching for his wallet. When that happens it should be negligent homicide at the very least. A person who is shot because of a mistaken fear is wrong whether committed by a private citizen or a police officer. I have no problem with an officer taking precautions such as cuffing an individual if he feels it is necessary. I do have a problem when a mistake in judgment takes an innocent persons life. When that happens there must be repercussions or people will lose faith in the system. Growing up in the 60's with a cop for a father I am well aware of the stress encountered on the street. It takes a special type of person to handle it. We all know of those who cannot deal with the pressure and should never allow them to hide behind this rule. Michael [/QUOTE]
