John,
Agree with you that you have to think before doing something on impulse...
Chasing down someone is Police business, but if someone comes at me and is not smiling, then I am not going to sit there and become a victim. If I see someone do something like this, I would call 911 and follow if possible. Not my job to stop and detain this idiot unless he is putting someone else in danger...
If a cop had shot the perp, then yes, I would feel better. Seeing these kids roam the country, stealing and killing then being slapped on the hand has to stop. The guy who shot the kid in your posting went out of bounds and he will face a jury who will decide his fate.
Joe
So, feels good to know the jacker got his? If I were the shooter, I would not enjoy the night in jail and the first degree assault charge. Gotta think before you act...
