[QUOTE="Chuckie, post: 3006260, member: 42584"] So your rational is that if "a cop surrounded by 2 other officers, can be scared for her life and is allowed to kill an unarmed man, strictly out of fear for what might happen" then that should also be allowable for anyone, but the truth is that anything [B]can[/B] happen if a suspect is 'cornered' and therefore liable to do anything to escape ('fight or flight' response). Shooting a [B]fleeing[/B] suspect in the back is little more than murder (or attempted murder) being that the shooters life, unlike the cop cited above, is most likely no longer in immediate danger considering that the suspect has chosen flight over fight.
