Here's the actual law:


It does appear that they're allowed to use deadly force if they believe they're in danger of unlawful serious bodily harm or death, or their home/car is being unlawfully entered, against a police officer. Though I would think that any case trying to use this has to be extremely black and white for it to work. I would imagine anything with a gray area in it will give the police officers the benefit of the doubt.

or it i will let the losing party darg the case for years. anyway i don't think there should be a law allowing you to shoot anybody at any situation, police officer or citizen. i wonder what the guy supporting gun usage thinks about being able to shoot the police "to save your life".

This new law seems like a double-edged sword to me. On one side, it supports the citizens against the police state. On the other hand, it'll most likely cause a lot of drama/bloodshed on the field with ppl manipulating the law, making it work in their favor.
