Well the laws must be very different from state to state. We were taught to deflate the BG (meaning aim for the chest) and to keep shooting until they were no longer a threat. Now the question was raised " does that mean we shoot to kill"? And the answer was in so many words yes. The example given was this, there was an incident were a guy was in his bed sleep and was awakened by a noise he heard downstairs. This guy...
