Yeah ... and so what ??? The underlying FACT remains the same. Here in Colorado, you can use deadly force to stop a robbery.

The DEFINITION OF ROBBERY involves force or threats of force. A robbery becomes aggravated in Colorado if additional elements apply, including whether the robber:

Is armed with a deadly weapon or any article that one would reasonably believe is a deadly weapon or states that he or she has a deadly weapon;
or
Knowingly wounds or strikes anyone or puts them in reasonable fear of death or injury.

“The DEFINITION OF ROBBERY involves force or threats of force. “

There are forms of robbery that do not include force or threats of force.
