    Default mob attack news story

    someone here has a site with news articles of people using their guns for good. I can't find the thread or the link.

    If anyone know what I'm talking about can you help me out?

    That was not the one I was thinking of but thanks it works.

    I'm having a debate about at what point a physical threat is enough to draw and possibly use your gun.

    In PA, when you feel your life is imminently in danger or the life of someone else.

    It's up to the Prosecutor and his Monday morning play calling to determine.

    yeah I know. I forget where the thread was, it might not have been on here. But there was many news stories about people using their guns to prevent crimes. A couple were folks defending themselves against un armed attackers.

    If you have reason to believe that you or a loved one will sustain serious or potentially fatal injury you are justified in using lethal force to stop threat.

    You are theoretically justified in using lethal force if you have reason to believe that an innocent third party will sustain serious or potentially fatal injury, but these cases can be harder to justify.
