I didn't realize there was a legal distinction between 'justifiable homicide' and 'excusable homicide'. Thanks for clearing that up.

Still, aren't juries fickle? Whether you have any kind of law to back you up, if it's up to a jury it could go any way.

FWIW, I carry hollow points despite what I've read about the Fish case. I completely agree with you and understand that the type of ammunition is not the critical factor. I was just relaying what I have read, second-hand, about the Fish case. I probably shouldn't do that, eh?When necessary to protect life and limb, shoot to kill. In all other circumstances, keep your gun in its holster and don't touch it. Don't use it for intimidation, or wave it around to protect property
