Default Re: Shoot to kill or stop the threat?

For Me, Shooting to Stop the Threat means 2 To the Center of Mass if possible. Less likelihood of a missed shot and hitting a bystander (innocent or not). I am not the lone ranger. I am defending my life and those I love.

If shooting to maim or incompacitate... then other options should have been available to you... and not deadly force (firing a weapon).

If you have to fire your weapon. It is always to stop the threat. never state that you shot to kill. You shot to stop the threat. One the threat was neutralized, you stopped firing and attempted to provide aide to the attacker (call 911 ASAP).
