Note that there is no
relationship (at least legally) between the
death penalty and use of weapons by police force; even in countries with
death penalty police follows the same Rules of Engagement (use weapon as self - defense or when other people are in danger),
death penalty is stablished by a jury or judge (police is a law enforcement agency,
sentences are issued by judges or juries)
Losing a better half isn't a dating
death sentence for the surviving partner, and creating a new intimate
relationship is in no way disrespectful.
