I would never think of shooting someone crawling away -- but I recognize that many of you would. I might kick his ass down the street, but ole guy not only endangered innocent bystanders, he shot a crawling, fleeing robber in the back. And you guys want to give him an award like they do on Free Republic.

First shot, I can sort of see. Shooting fleeing people in back, not so much. Hoyt Jul 2012 #1
Bad guy still has gun in hand, he is still a threat, even if his back is to you. GreenStormCloud Jul 2012 #2
