But chasing one that was wounded, unarmed, and shooting him (I assume)in the back?
If he had not done so the animal would have lived to steal and rob others. Worse yet, if he left the animal wounded it would have been a wonderful opportunity to sue the shooter for all he was worth.
I guess you think he should have used his own keys to open the car doors for the animals while they stole his property...and that would have prevented any VIOLENCE.
Seriously if you have a gun, keep it locked up, and stop living in some fantasy world where this is actually praised as a “service”.
You are on the phone with the cops chasing a 15 year old that is wounded, and you shoot him in the back? You seriously think that’s some real hero stuff?
Car thief or not, this guy had poor skills and turned his defensive firearm into an offensive one at the wrong time.
What part of the 15 year old being MURDERED don’t you understand?
Witnesses to that fact and all.
