'The phrase 'Halt or I'll shoot!' has long been a part of our national culture, and it is familiar to most youngsters whether they grow up reading books, watching television, or both. The commonly acknowledged and well-known practice of warning suspects, whenever feasible, before subjecting them to force that may cause serious injury...[is a] ...constitutional [duty].'
DeBoer v. Pennington, 206 F.3d 857, 864-865 (9th Cir.2000).
