You're talking about Texas law. I'm not.

It is often the case that cops can't shoot alleged assailants in the back or shoot to kill when there is no clear and present threat. That's what my original post addressed.

Horn shot and killed "just because" he wanted to and felt that he could. If they ran from him then they were no longer his problem. They weren't his problem in the first place but especially if they were running.

No, I provided a rhetorical question about cops shooting alleged assailants who present no clear and present threat, whether they are unarmed or fleeing.
