I am not going to pick this one apart...it would take too long.

I am just glad the lady and her child weren't hurt.

This one is a case of "should versus could".

Totally legally righteous...but.....................

Armchair QB-ing is not going to do anyone any good unless you were there.  Initially, baby + firing gun in close proximity;  BAD.

This guy could be a IDPA member, an NRA certified instructor, graduate of RP's school, someone who is confident in his ability to hit the target,  The point is we don't know.

He saw, drew and fired. 3 shots 3 hits, no charges.,..... BG in prison, somehow not dead ???

This is old news.

I think the angle of the video makes tha shot look more risky to the bystanders than it was.  The guy is obviously on target to hit a moving man 3 out of 3, so it was not too close for  his skill.

Worse tho, the guy reportedly went on to post macho "I got the SOB" type videos showing "Cowboyish" gun handling (no offense to Cowboys intended at all).  I saw none of them, just read the reports.

Everything else aside.  He lived to go to jail!?!?!?! 

Hopefully everyone thinks real hard about that one for a while.  Take from it what you want, I think the guy shooting did good.  He handled that gun pretty confidently.  Probably still got sue'd by somebody!

Interesting.

I think the angle makes it seem closer to the baby than it really was. I noticed that he didn't sweep anyone (other than the BG) with his muzzle. Seems to be fairly well trained. I don't know how sound the logic is on drawing against an armed BG, but it worked for this guy.

I personally don't think I would have made the same choice. I probably would have given the guy the money and let him get the heck out of town.
