I've seen videos of people being shot multiple times and still fighting back. Cops shoot people all the time in less threatening situations. Aren't they citizens, too. Are we second class and not entitled to protect ourselves and homes? The killing shot, from my understanding, was when one of the teens was laying flat and motionless, where he went and put the gun under their chin and pulled the trigger. That's the ONLY problem I see here.
Are you at all familiar with the facts of this incident?
The guy held a kid at gunpoint, on his knees, in the basement, and then shot him in the head.
This is not 'a hill to die on' for advocates of self defense, or defense of one's dwelling with deadly force.
Instead of putting words in my mouth, and posting irrelevant hyperbole, simply answer my questions:
"How do you justify shooting someone who is on thier knees, with a headshot from a rifle, and at the same time not justify "...the kill shot..."?
Do you consider this a self defense shooting?"
