...This is not murder. Im sure the guy was not looking to just kill someone. He was frightened and had to do what was best for him, not for the others. I'm sure he shot the kid to make sure he wouldn't get up and maybe pull a gun out on him. It was in his best interest to kill the kid. How much would you like to bet that given the same situation you wouldn't have time to decide wether he was a threat or not, or if he still had a gun, or if he was unconcious or just tricking you, or if he would wake up and try something? You generally don't have time for those kind of questions, so it is best to assume the worst and protect yourself rather than your attacker. I don't care if the kid was unarmed, he robbed the guy and a gun was shown to him. Thats all. This is self defence. And, even if it was murder -_- It's not the guys fault (Well technically, but judgement wise he was lacking. Many people use this for their defense when they kill on PURPOSE or for no reason; this man had a reason).

Oh, and boringryu, if what you say is true then I defenitely think that the law you stated is completely flawed. Not like it would be the only flawed one, but that is stupid. Sooo a man goes into your house and is breaking everything in sight. You later walk in and see the house is destroyed and a HUGE man in black is running towards you, looking as though he is about to harm you. He has no visible weapon, though. You cannot use a gun, or else it is murder? How is that fair? What if he was hiding a knife or something or even a pistol somewhere? Are you just going to say "Well, let's make this fair. I, a 140 pound man will take on you, a 240 pound man with my fists." Is that even sane? You should use whatever you deem necessary to defend yourself in a time of danger against whatever. There should be nothing that regulates how well you can protect yourself. That is downright BS...
