yes, I know, but in the UK you dont, hence Tony Martin being in jail, and all these people thinking it is a terrible injustice. I personally am happy with our law at least in this matter. But even under American law, I dont think a jury could find a guy could have feared for his life when he fired the second shot and killed the wounded man.
