Clearly, Rick, if that applies to civilians shooting a fleeing felon, it must be some one engaged in a felonious act. I don't think it's fuzzy in the least.

Any man is morally justified, if not compelled, to shoot a fleeing rapist caught in the act. It's refreshing to see Texas law still recognizes that simple truth. Those of you arguing the finer points of when it was still o.k. to shoot (was he done with her, was he leaving already, did he pose an imminent threat to the shooter, etc.) have clearly lived in California too long.
