i was trained to shoot to stop the threat. but we were trained to shoot center mass, which in most cases is a death causing shot. i dont know the details, gotta turn on the t.v. unless the guy presented some sort of detonator, just saying he had a bomb is not enough to pull the trigger. in todays day and age, maybe it is now acceptable. he deserved to get shot for not hitting the ground and giving up. think about it. you say you have a bomb. air marshall produces handgun and points it at you and obviously has been trained to tell you to put your hands up and get down on your knees. assuming he made furitive or threatening gestures towards a passenger or the air marshall, he deserved to get taken out. i can't see the air marshall shooting someone who gave up or put their hands up when asked. i'm sure the marshall knew that shooting him could trigger the explosive device.
