According to Sheriff Randy Seal, a man from Louisville, Mississippi was visiting Rowell, but before leaving the home, he apparently had taken a pistol from the home and placed it in his luggage.
Seal said that when Rowell confronted the man, he pulled out the pistol and pointed it at Rowell, his wife and mother. After a brief standoff, Seal said the man tossed the gun to the ground and began to run away. At that point, Seal said Rowell fired, striking the man twice. |

I think the operative phrase here is 'tossed the gun to the ground'.
Retreating does not make you a non-threat.
Disarming does make you a non-threat. |

TO REMEMBER |
| The most foolish mistake we could possibly make would be to permit the conquered Eastern peoples to have arms. History teaches that all conquerors who have allowed their subject races to carry arms have prepared their own downfall by doing so. Indeed I would go so far as to say that the underdog is a sine qua non for the overthrow of any sovereignty. So let's not have any native militia or police. German troops alone will bear the sole responsibility for the maintenance of law and order. — Adolf Hitler, April 11, 1942. (Source: "Hitler's Table-Talk at the Fuehrer's Headquarters 1941-1942", Dr. Henry Picker, ed. (Athenaeum Verlag, Bonn, 1951).) |
