Game: Judge and Jury (part 4)

Another game in the pursuit of Justice! Here are the rules.

Story:

"George is drinking a cup of coffee at a coffee shop. He is almost done when he hears a noise. He turns around, and he sees someone robbing the store attendant. The man has a gun, and is threatening the attendant to give him the money in the cash register. The thief puts the money in a bag, and then points the gun at the attendant's head. George sees the man click the safety off, and knows from his Gun-Training that the man is about to shoot. George has a concealed weapons permit, and pulls out his pistol. Just as the robber begins to pull the trigger, George shoots him in the leg. The bullet misses the attendant and the robber slumps to the floor. When the police arrive, they discover that the robber had died from blood loss. George is arrested on Aggravated Force charges, and is fined a good deal of money."

Did George do the right thing?

P.S. -- The reason I'm posting this story is that I've read of things similar to this happening quite a few times. I'd like to know your opinion.

I believe that George did the right thing and was unjustly charged. He saved a man's life (even though another died). He did not shoot to kill the man, he shot him in the leg so that the thief would be disabled and distracted from shooting the innocent man. He was a hero who got portrayed as a murderer.

Creo George la cosa bien, y acusó injustamente. Salvó un hombre vida ( a pesar de que otro morió). No despara matar hombre, pero en la pierna que el ladrón sería discapacitado y distraído de disparos hombre inocente. George era un héroe quien se retrató como un asesino.

Por favor corregir mi español! smile
