36. do you always oppose the use of deadly force?
the old guy that shot up the holocaust museum. was it wrong to take him out instead of disarming and arresting him. heck, he was old, and he would've run out of bullets eventually, so shouldn't law enforcement have waited until he was arrested and could have a trial?

Or maybe the line between when deadly force is appropriate and lawful isn't black and white but depends on all of the circumstances.
