Damage shown from blast that stopped police-killing sniper

Just waiting for the opportunity.

When misanthrope, or any other legal expert you're "recognizing" comes up with a case that says that police may lawfully kill a suspect who poses no threat to public safety, we can have that contest.

All we have seen so far from misanthrope are conclusory statements like, "No....you misinterpret the 5th amendment." That's not a legal argument. That's a conclusion. Aside from that, all misanthrope has provided are remarks like "He got his due" (a cute play on due as in due process) and the legally incorrect statement that 5th Amendment rights do not attach until you are in custody (while I respect the heck out of misanthrope for the work he/she does, it's 6th Amendment rights that don't attach until custody. The Fifth Amendment applies to all government takings. While there are obviously exception to every right, the exceptions to the 5th Amendment applicable here (because we aren't talking about a situation like, for example, where there can be an adequate post-taking remedy) are limited to those situations where the government is engaged in the protection of the public from a current threat)

Now if you, or misanthrope, or anyone else you think is a "real lawyer" have a single case which says otherwise, I'd love to hear it. However, if all you have is "On the internet, know one knows you're a dog," any discussion we are having is over.
