I'm very familiar with Larry Brown and his tax problems. He's no hero, He's an ass that doesn't abide by the same rules the rest of us have to. No sympathy here. Essex
Yeah, I'm not sure that has anything to do with whether its legal and/or maral to shoot someone. I dont really think just being an ass, someone who doesnt follow the govt.'s rules, or being simply a supporter of said person qualifies a justification to shoot them.
I dont like the tax code/laws anymore than the next guy, but currently, it IS the law, and I dont think we have exhausted our options to the point we need to just ignore those laws, or take up arms against the government.I think we still have PLENTY of other ways to change them if we want at this point.
That said, I cant see the video, as Youtube is blocked here at work, but if all the guy did was run away from someone, unarmed, I dont see how shooting them would be legal or justified, even for an LEO, unless they GENUINELY thought letting him escape posed a SERIOUS risk to the safety of the public, which would be hard to justify if he was unarmed, and wasnt an escaped rapist, murderer, etc, who had shown he was willing to kill or harm people. I'll have to watch this when I get home, and will comment then if I see anything that changes my mind.
