I really didn't take King Brown's remarks to mean that he disagreed with that Marines response to that situation.
"I DID", else I believe he would not have stated it in the manner in which he did. I took it he was saying the Marine should be tried & convicted for shooting the perps over the value of the money in his wallet. Personally I think there was much more on the Marine's mind than the value in his wallet & stand in support of him.
While admitting we are not totally led by them, never-the-less much can be learned by a study of the Laws, given to the house of Israel By the Almighty God at the hand of Moses. To paraphrase one of them "If a thief be slain while in the act of his thievery, NO Blood, will be required for him" "If" the sun shall rise & the victim go after him & slay him, then blood will be required for him. This would be accounted murder, the first would not.
When a thug comes in showing total dis-respect for people & their goods & is currently pointing a gun at you, anyone who does not consider they just may be shot (read that "fear for your life") is a fool.
