Please quote me where I said I would do that.
I thought I did.
Your quote:
"I would answer 'yes' to your first scenario and 'no' to your 2nd"
I gave you a second scenario (the one in the library). Your answer to it is no. I thought we finally got an answer out of you.
You keep wanting more information. I'm giving you the exact same information that was available to the armed officer in that situation. The question is to determine what you would do with those same details available in that split-second decision to make.
If that isn't your answer, then what is your answer? You're going in circles now. Seems like you're just trying to dodge. Again.
You don't get to change the details in that situation and neither did the officer. He faced the split-second decision he was dealt with and he took the shot. He responded to the situation with an action. You can't even answer a simple ******* question.
