So any time any LEO gets in a "I might have to shoot" situation the LEO shouldn't of tried to arrest a violator because the moron violator might just get stupid and "try" the officer???

your posts seem to follow a predictable path.... anti law enforcement...


Here, here! By his logic LEOs should cease stopping cars for traffic offenses because that is when a lot of officer involved shootings occur. Someone gets shot over a silly DUI.

The best defense I ever heard for the decoy was Rouleau (sp?) telling me about a man who shot the decoy with his young son in the truck and told the judge that "I knew it was a decoy deer, I was just trying to show my son it wasn't real".


Not the same at all! A DUI check stops people who are already breaking the law and endangering other motorists with no "help" from law enforcement.

A decoy intentionally creates the dangerous situation that the law enforcement is supposedly trying to stop. For DUI to be the same they would have to plant full bottles of whisky along the road, possibly at stop signs with the intention to get drivers to drink them just so they could be stopped for drunk driving. How would you feel about that?
