B+D- You do what you have to do if the situation warrants it. If that means you have no choice but to shoot, then you had no choice. But you better be darn sure that it's your only choice in the situation. That doesn't mean you have to run away or cower in a corner, unless you live someplace that has laws saying you can't defend yourself, and even then, if the choice is life or death? You do what you have to.
My posts were in reaction to Lous apparent disregard for the realities of the aftermath of a shooting. (And his childish insults) It's not fun, at all. Some people seem to think it will make them some sort of hero or something, others seem to think their judgment is infallible and won't be questioned. I can assure you everything will be questioned. So in the unlikely event you are forced to make this decision I will give you the same advice I gave Lou that got him so mad- It only takes a second to announce that you have a gun and for the BG to leave or stop or something. If there's no time, fine, just be prepared to articulate that. For Gods sake though, do NOT listen to the idiots that tell you to "drag him into the house" or to shoot a few holes in the walls from the BGs gun or to put a knife in his hands or something stupid like that. I've heard keyboard commandos give advice like that a million times. News flash- cops aren't stupid. You alter the evidence and things aren't going to add up and next thing you know you took a bad situation and made it into a nightmare.
I sincerely hope no one ever has to make this choice.
