I think everyone has to remember-the guy they shot WAS A CRIMINAL AND AN ILLEGAL! Running is what they do-even when they are armed-they have to take cover from the chaser dogs and bullets coming their way. So what if the guy claims he was unarmed-If I found a stranger had broke into my home-I am darn sure going to grab my weapon and take aim at him,even if he claims he is unarmed-the man was an illegal and that makes him a criminal-the criminal was a known admitted drug smuggler.

Just because a terrorist hasnt set his armed vest off yet doesnt make him any less a terrorist. Drugs are part of the funding of crime and terror networks. Illegal drugs in their least dangerous forms create gang crime and addictions that have a human cost which far exceeds trying to rationalize the imprisonment of two men who didnt follow protocols properly. Anyone not on the side of defeating that needs to be shot in the butt.
