TAMA ba o MALI na pinuruhan niya yung Mentally Unstable?
ANSWER:
Whenever u engage a target with a lethal weapon, one must always say in court that “i meant to kill him because I feared for my life.” Yan ang safest litigation proof reason for shooting someone. Yan na ang tinuturo ngayon sa Officer Survival School worldwide. Of kors dito sa Pinas, huli nanaman!
Up to now, popular pa rin dito ang “Shoot to maim!” and "Warning shot". The worldwide contention these days are:
1. Never use a lethal weapon to maim. When in danger, shoot to neutralize (soft term for kill). When u shoot someone you have to try to tell the court that you meant to shoot him and that if he died, it was part of your intention.
2. You must never shoot anyone in the leg or arm to maim. It only means you didn’t feel the threat was deadly enough to kill. If so, the prosecution will simply tell the court , that if you were not threatened enough to shoot to kill, why did you use a weapon intended for killing. Further, yari cop kung binaril niya sa paa at namatay.
3. Hindi advised to wrestle him down dahil sa possibilty na explosive dala and dahil na rin sa covid.
