It’s something I was taught a long time ago.At least morally .
Think about where those bullets are going before you drop the hammer.
It kinda stuck in my head.

No, The criminal. If it was not for the criminal, nothing would happen. Criminal should hang for the 9 year old.The trigger man should still own the bullet. No?
One of the things my Father and I used to try and impress on people taking our class was there is no do over once you pull that trigger.It’s something I was taught a long time ago.

Right. Felony murder?Why isn’t the robber on the hook for the homicide?
Careful there .... suicidal ideation .... suitability ..... danger to self .....Ya but we ain’t turned this into a cop bashing thread. Yet.
If I killed an innocent 9 yo with my bullet as an unintended target I’d likely eat one.
I'm not sure about Texas , but I believe in Georgia you can catch a murder rap if someone dies in the commission of a crime you commit even if you didn't do the killing.No, The criminal. If it was not for the criminal, nothing would happen. Criminal should hang for the 9 year old.
Point.Careful there .... suicidal ideation .... suitability ..... danger to self .....
I think part of it is that having the license shows that you have demonstrated basic proficiency with a handgun.Would having a license have made the outcome any less tragic?
Hey never mentioned what he would eat.Careful there .... suicidal ideation .... suitability ..... danger to self .....

I get where you are coming from but, he hit someone in a moving vehicle. How fast was it moving? Was it even visible to him when he fired? His backdrop could have been perfectly clear when he pulled the trigger. Then a truck doing 40-50 mph completely changed that in less than a second. We have no idea. That doesn't mean that the grand jury didn't see some vid from the ATM or traffic cam., etc... that showed them a situation similar to the one I described.We rightfully attack police who can't make the shot and hose some person not involved. And ill do the same for this guy. If you can't take the shot without hitting someone else dont take it.

Only if you're average Joe 12 pack. If that bullet was fired from a police officer's gun the cop wouldn't be on the hook. It would just be another case of qualified immunity saving his ass.
OK, I missed this part...."while shooting at a fleeing suspect". If he is running away from you, do not shot.Sorry, that is ridiculous and doesn't even make sense. So if you are the victim of a crime, then you are indemnified against any responsibility for everything you do after that crime? And the perp takes the responsibility? It so, for how long does that apply, 2 minutes or an hour or how about a day?
Hopefully you see the fallacy in what you say.
Agree, however the criminal was fleeing away from the victim.The robber should be charged with the murder not the shooter . It’s not like the movies.. The scumbag created the situation. He was trying to defend himself, just didn’t do as well as he hoped,it wasn’t intentional. That being said it’s an awful Situation That never would’ve occurred if it wasn’t for someone being a piece of shit
Are you trying to compare the U.S to a country that was bombed for over a decade, where thousands, if not millions, of jobs were lost, where hundreds of thousands of people were forced fired from their jobs and there are huge levels of poverty... to the U.S?"An armed society is a polite society" amirite boys? How come that statement doesn't apply to Chiraq where everybody carries Glocks with machine gun switches and happy sticks?
It’s just a shame he missed. If he didn’t miss then be one less criminal in the world..Agree, however the criminal was fleeing away from the victim.

No, but "just following orders" sometimes does. Look at the federal courts squashing the state indictment of FBI agent Horiuchi in which the court ruled a state cannot prosecute a federal LEO who kills while acting under orders from their agency.Qualified Immunity only protects police from civil liability, not criminal.
Read that early in the morning and saw Iraq, not Chiraq.Sure sounds like it, except that he is using the lawless "country" of Chicago to try to make a rational point.
And fails mightily.
@MGnoob For armor recommendations.I’m flying to Texas, think I better pack my ballistic armor. I hate free fire zones.
