I'm sorry. My choice of words was poor. What I really meant was, "I would not be calling for the prosecution of somebody under those circumstances."
It's hard for me to really argue nuanced levels of right, justified, warranted, etc. without much more detailed scenarios. Small details can change things enormously.
I think the biggest problem is the level of certainty. It's fairly easy to speculate about what to do if you KNOW that somebody has a properly wired up bomb. It's a lot harder to decide what to do when you're, for example, 90% sure they do.
As I mentioned, I am uncomfortable with what I've heard, but I'm not ready to support or condemn anything until I hear more facts. Regardless of the facts, I am sad that somebody died, and I am disappointed that they were not able to be questioned by the police.
