I think this is more complicated than just what the law needs to say. Or even whether human life has value. Personally I think it is good to prevent vigilante justice and that the death penalty is too extreme a punishment for crimes.

But from a more non-legal, purely visceral standpoint… I think that anyone, good or evil, for the wrong reasons or right, forfeits their right to safety when they willfully endanger others. The second that guy pointed a gun at someone he no longer had a right to life for at least the short term future, nor did the person aiding and abetting that action. They took on that risk willingly and knowingly and they suffered the worst possible outcome for their choice. But so did the guy that ran them over, by chasing them he also forfeited his life, and had be been shot, it wouldn’t have been a tragedy either. You chose to chase someone with a gun, you accepted the risk to your life and proceeded anyway. So the real question is, is property really worth the risk to your life? Everyone in this situation is a moron, property is not worth it, imo.
