My understanding is that his "psychotic rampage" had run its course. There was no one alive on the bus. He was not a threat to anyone at that point. To kill him without him presenting a threat would in fact be murder. Had he come off the bus and attacked anyone then they could and should shoot him. I would not shed a tear. That was not the case.
These distinctions mean something and are what separate us from chaos and unimaginable brutality.
To change the topic slightly the fatawad that abducted the girl in penhold and assaulted her for two days. Clearly he is sick. Clearly he needs help. Clearly he deliberately and carefully planned his ruse and crime and knew what he was doing and the consequences. For that he should and will likely go away for a long time of shiving and rape receiving. I have no problem with that.
