Yes, after this lady totally disabled him by shooting him numerous times.latest report is that the attacker killed himself
She went easy on him. I would have blown his brains out (sorry), and would have felt no remorse for it as it would have been a just, morrally correct shooting!
Hardly! If someone shoots at you, and you kill 'em...you have every right to do so and the law cannot make you shoot to wound as they may result in more people dying.If you are carrying a gun around for the purpose to torture, kill and mame anyone who attacks you...you are in for some jail time if you ever do have to defend yourself.
How 'bout hoping to never have to shoot anybody, not looking forward to it in anyway, but fully prepared to do so if you find yourself in a sitution where you have no choice but to shoot someone.She woud be labeled a "John Wayne" or a "Rambo". She must be trigger happy, gung-ho, and just hoping for a reason to shoot someone.

If you leave the guy alive it's a bigger problem than killing him. Returning deadly force to respond to deadly force is perfectly legal. With someone who's either a nutjob or jacked up on dope...killing them is the only way you can know for sure that you've disabled the threat to your life and the lives of others.
She would never get along with the majority of the people on this forum.
She didn't get under a table, crawl out the nearest exit.
She didn't come up with 25 dangers, complications and legal implications with engaging the shooter.
She didn't come up with 25 ways how her actions migt make things worse, endanger more people, or get her shot by a leo.
She didn't analyze the dangers and negatives to the point of rendering herself powerless.
She actually put herself in danger to defend poeple outside of her immediate family.
She woud be labeled a "John Wayne" or a "Rambo". She must be trigger happy, gung-ho, and just hoping for a reason to shoot someone.
Nope, she would never mix well here.

Come on now mattro, thats a bit much don't you think? I think 90% of the people on here would not hesitate, hide, or otherwise if lives were in danger and they could honestly stop the threat. But the purpose of forums like this is to go over scenarios, the legal aspects of a shoot, ect. There is nothing wrong with being as knowledgable and informed as possible, so as to protect yourself and others before, during, and after an incident involving a firearm
