Quote:I said that once he started being combative I would have stopped the action.

 

In my younger years I worked as a Deputy Sheriff.  I'm not a big guy and if confronted by a much larger guy that starts assaulting me, I had the power to stop the action by whatever means.  If I felt that his assault put my life in danger, then escalating up to deadly force is justified in order to stop the action.

 

The fact that he was unarmed has no bearing on it.
I'll just throw this out there:

 

If someone shoots and kills someone else because a punch was thrown at them, what would you call it?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Now assume that the shooter is not a cop.
