Whether he would have WANTED to allow himself to sustain "rather minor injuries" is NOT the question.

The question is whether the likelihood of such "rather minor injuries" is an adequate legal justification for the use of DEADLY force in response.

Wrong. That is not the standard. I’m beginning to think you may not be Hank. A lawyer, even a small town family law guy, should not be so consistently wrong on legal questions.

They don't want it to be true. It's become a manifestation of their hatred of Trump and subsequently ICE.

This is the same party that fought tooth and nail to label Melissa Hortman's assassin as MAGA.

Wrong again. The standard is whether the officer reasonably believed he or others were in imminent danger of death or severe bodily harm. She hit him with an SUV. You’re so disingenuous. B

Stop pretending this is some subjective thing.

There is clear proof in this case, and the officer had every reason to feel threatened with great bodily harm. It was reasonable for him to feel that way.

And that is all that matters in making this a legal self defense scenario.

Are you arguing that if there's an angle that clearly shows the ball crossing the goal line, it's not necessarily going to be called a TD?
I am uncertain why the football analogy is so important to you, but ...

My understanding of the rule is that the "call on the field" (whether "TD" or "no TD") can only be overturned by instant replay ... if the video review shows CONCLUSIVELY that the call made "on the field" was wrong.

If one review angle appears to show a TD and other angle appears to show "no TD," it is a judgment call for the replay ref as to whether "conclusive evicence" exists.

Exactly. That activity by that driver must stop before more drivers feel it is okay to behave that way.

People, especially liberals and marxist, even those programmed, will react differently when they suspect harm or death will be the result of their actions.

look at the Trayvon Martin case. Did the jury believe it is was reasonable for the white hispanic to allow Trayvon to continue bashing his skull into the concrete, and only use lethal force when he was clinically moments from death?
So it depends on if you reasonably believe the person who broke your arm will continue breaking things until you are dead, and at what moment might you be incapacitated beyond the point of self defense.

But we aren't talking about a broken arm. We are talking about a fricking lunatic trying to run you over in a 4000lb SUV.

Wasn’t aware that someone could have insight into what amount of injury they would receive in a car hitting them to gauge whether lethal force should be applied on a perp that is causing the potential injury on him or another person, law enforcement or public. That kind of insight would be valuable wouldn’t it

Its actually a ludicrous point. Ironically coming from a self-described intellectual.

Speaking of that thug, didn't Obama speak out in defense of him during the investigation?

Hmmmmm????

It's a joke, making fun of the "shoot them in the leg" self defense argument.

This is lame even for you.

“Rather minor injuries” is in no way a part of the analysis. Most reasonable people are going to reasonably fear death or great bodily harm in the event someone else is driving a vehicle at them

Wrong. That is not the standard.
Yes, it is.

Did the agent reasonably believe that the use of deadly force was necessary to protect life (or prevent serious bodily injury)?

Since we stipulated "relatively minor injuries" above, the parenthetical language does not come into play here.



But just for the fun of the discussion ... If an LEO knows with 100% certainty that he will receive "minor injuries" (and nothing more) unless he first uses DEADLY force, does that knowledge constitute legal cause for the use of deadly force?

OPW, can he kill a suspect to prevent a skinned knee?
