I have to be honest here. Once the robbers made a decision to rob, then that is the path you chose. Someone pulls a gun usually means business. So he died. Both of the robbers were punks. If you are doing armed robbery at 16 , you're not heading towards an Eagle Scout or meaningful life. More than likely a punk like that is going to continue to rob and possibly kill.

so I say, too bad punk.

now the pharmacist did the ONE THING you should NEVER DO if you shoot someone. Talk to the cops other than to say " my weapon is on the ground, I was afraid for my life, I no longer want to say anything without a LAWYER" then just shut your mouth and say NOTHING. Don't explain, don't say you shot or killed or did anything. Just over and over I'm waiting for my lawyer.

The police are not your friends and the quicker you realize that the better for you. They are there to take notes, photos, gather evidence, increase their budgets, go home safely to collect their pensions and that's it.

“Once the robbers made a decision to rob, then that is the path you chose. Someone pulls a gun usually means business.”

Cops fire multiple rounds into people, who move the wrong way.

People ask: “Why did they kill him? Coulda just wounded him.”

But the PDs reply they are trained to fire to kill, period. And that scenario usually prevails.

But now this civilian is different. He doesn’t get to keep shooting until the threat is stopped, dead.

It is a double standard.
