So you are okay when police get into gun fights but not a store owner defending his life and property. Why is that what's the difference?

My
hope would be that the pigs, er... police and armed guards are well trained, not only in using their weapons but also in the psychological aspect of killing another human. The store owners most likely are not. This is why news stories always end with things like, "1 killed, 3 or 4 wounded". Wild shooting, shattered nerves and too much adrenaline does not lend well to a gunfight.
Store owners are not properly trained, and they aren't fucking cowboys.
