Thread: Oklahoma Incident

As to the question of "Shooting to kill", I have always been told that the objective is to "shoot to stop", meaning center of mass. Of course, shooting to stop effectivly is very likely to kill the target, but that is not your concern. The distinction seems academic, really.

I was told the reason for this is that you never want to tell a cop or prosecuter that you were trying to kill someone, but that you were trying to stop an attack.

This information I recieved from some very smart sounding internet lawyers, so take that for what it's worth. Free legal advice is worth every penny you paid for it.
