Re: A little help
From what i know the use of a gun to shoot someone to prevent them from committing suicide is ruled out in the paragraph prior to this as you cannot us deadly force to prevent someone from committing suicide and the use of a gun is considered deadly force as a firearm is intended in its intended use serious bodily injury or death. This was put in for a first responders, the situation in Calf, when the bay bridges fell during the earthquake. It was placed into law that we could use force up to including deadly force to save a life. Arms and legs had to be amputated to save their live, which is known to cause serious bodily injury or death. This I'm sure is the basis for that statement.
