If you are saying by killing people and not turning themselves in they are giving up those rights, then are rights given up whenever the law is broken and you don't turn yourself in? I just worry about opening a can of worms. Cops need to do everything possible to take a guy in, no matter what the circumstances were leading up to or currently happening in a situation.

He was at the very moment shooting at and killing cops. I don't know how you can get any more "threatening" than that.
