Right. He was one of the suspects from yesterday, he was wearing a
trenchcoat, in July, and a backpack and ran from the cops. It's open
season, fire away.

Sooo, if I am a student (backpack) with a resemblance to someone
(passing or specific), wearing a "padded coat" (in mid to high 60's
weather and rain forecast, and I have the chills because of the flu)
and run from armed people (unclear whether these armed police were
plainclothes or not)...it gives those armed people the right to kill me
from 2 feet away?!?!?!

I am not questioning the actions (at this time), but your
characterization of the events. Someone running from the cops is *not*
open season to shoot that person.
