You are absolutely correct and if anyone bothered (or cared) to do a little research, a list of unarmed citizens that have been killed...can easily be found.
I have no problem taking someone out that has a gun in their hands (or even really close by), but some of the 'recent incidents' show that some LEO's...aren't temperamentally suited for the job.
