The Fauxnly Ones...they're not as unheard of as some may think.

But it is illegal to resist someone who is, or claims to be, a police officer.

Second thought: What if it happens to be a real cop doing the killing? They could even be off duty, since so many have take home cars.

Practically, you're correct, Divemedic.

Legally and morally... see John Bad Elk vs United States
