[QUOTE="soberups, post: 1436816, member: 14668"] Cops are human beings with survival instincts, just like civilians. From a legal standpoint they, like civilians, are allowed to use a [I]reasonable[/I] level of force to meet a threat. A [I]reasonable[/I] person could draw the conclusion that a 300 lb man who assaults you, overpowers you and attempts to take your gun away is doing so because he intends to [I]use[/I] it on you, and if you are outweighed by 100 lbs and are in imminent danger of having your gun taken away then your only [I]reasonable[/I] option at that point is to kill him before he kills you.
