I agree there also. If he is in your home and you announce yourself and he does anything but leave fuck him cap his ass. But if he is running away which is Moby's point he is not a danger to you any more. Why bother with shooting him. Seriously with the way courts are today it is NOT worth it for someone running away not threatening you.[/b]
How about just cap his ass to begin with. If he's armed, you may get killed if you make an "announcement".

I would never fire on someone who was running away. However, in CO, the law sides with the homeowner in his house no matter what the circumstances.
