2. Assuming the "ground guy" felt threatened (which would be understandable) there is still no reason to KILL the pusher. Ground guy was on the ground. Ground guy could've shot the pusher in the foot. Or leg. Or arm. Or hip, or shoulder. It was a big looking pusher, and they were close range. Not much chance to miss. Ground guy chose a death shot. Ground guy committed murder, not self-defense. Cops chose not to allow charges to be pressed.

You do not shoot to wound ( no one is that good in a life and death situation to do that ). The shot is center body mass and is intended to kill. When you make a decision to fire, you have made the decision to end a life unfortunately and must live with the aftermath.
