It is clear that the policeman understood it to be his duty to execute this fleeing man. There is neither evidence of the car attempting to run over the officer, nor any effort by the officer to stay out of harm's way. The clear intent was to kill the driver of the car. For his part, the driver was nice enough not to even run over the feet of the police officer.
Indeed, FJ. Notice the absence of our usual defenders of self-defense as a way of life.
What the hell are you talking about now? Should the "defenders of self-defense" rise even to the defense of those shooters whose claims of self-defense are quite dubious?
