put on your creepy clown mask and a baseball bat attitude adjustment tool to the kneecap, no one said you gotta kill the mofo, just make it easier for his victim to get away

Re: To get involved or not?
I would have acted, but I would not have shot him. The story says the man was on top of her and choking her. That would most likely mean he was kneeling over her. I would have come up behind him and boxed his ears. While he was recovering from that pain and disorientation I would have pur a rear strangle hold on him, exerting just enough force to cut off air until he let her go. It is real easy to knock a person out with that hold. If that did not work and he stayed aggressive I would have used mt all metal pocket 380 as an impromptu black jack. Only as a last resort would I have shot him.

Until the day comes the System is no longer designed to screw people who in good faith attempt to render aid, I will solely focus on protecting me and mine. Issue a national Good Samaritan law that contains the words "immunity from all prosecution" and I'll think about changing my tune.

Had this happen at a store I managed. A girl walks up, disheveled, pleading to use the phone to call the police, at 6:30 am.
Gang-banger-wanna-be boyfriend shows up, telling her to get the fuck back home.
Told him to leave cuz the police had been called.
He left, police came and picked her up.
Saw him a week later, as a customer. Never said a word to me.
Being a samaritan doesn't mean one has to get physically involved, especially if they think they aren't capable.
But, pulling a gun, a reasonable person has to believe that someone's life is in jeopardy to find those actions justified.

"Most likely won't be charged". That's why people are afraid to get involved.
Any vote for a third party is a vote for a Democrat. You are the enemy.

It's a tough call, to easy for things to go south quickly for the good guy. In some jurisdictions, like Philly, the cops would probably charge you along with the bad guy and seize your weapon. Other places, not dominated by liberals, you might only be questioned and sent on your way. I think most people don't know what they'd do or not do until they find themselves in a crisis situation.
