Anyone who's ever worked as a nightclub bouncer will tell you - even when the guy is down...don't stop kickin' him in the guts until you're absolutely convinced he doesn't want to get back up and fight some more.
The courts wrongly assume that everyone is able to react with a perfectly clear mind and logical thought process when confronted by someone willing to use deadly force on you. In reality, that's not the case. Its not like Hollywood where the scenario is all scripted and everyone knows what they're doing. Decisions are made in split seconds usually as a result of a fight-or-flight panic mentality - often without the benefit of all the minutia information that might be supplied to a jury afterward.
To me, if someone's willing to commit deadly force against you in the commission of (let's say)...an armed robbery - you have every right and justification to take that person's life in defense of your own (or your family).
(the footage in the link is fake, btw - I saw an unedited version on another site awhile back...it was all staged).
