But there's another part of the equation that's often overlooked in these conversations.

And if you pull it...and you suddenly realize you don't have it in you...you're going to find yourself in an imminently more dangerous situation than you already were in.

I wish to god there were more people out there keeping loaded weapons handy and were blowing away people who were committing heinous acts like this, because I do believe it would act as a damn good deterrent. But the sad truth is, for most people, there is no way to defend yourself from such an incident.
Most people don't have what it takes to unload on someone.

It would really be a hard call as a parent...safety vs. children curiosity.

I cold be wrong but I believe that most parents (and people as a whole) are very protective of their children. Based upon that, I believe a parent would do anything in their power to protect their children and they wouldn't think twice about taking an action against a threat if given the opportunity.

Disclaimer: I'm not a parent but am curious as to how you protect your family in cases like this.
I have no way to protect myself or my family in a situation like this. I'd probably be cowering in a corner pissing myself.

More people need to get there. I would have no problem with it if it came down to him and I, or protecting a member of my family. I also have 25 years of martial arts experience so if it came down to a situation where there wasn't a gun, I can go medieval if I have to.

At this point, I have nothing to prove and try to avoid getting into situations where I would have to use a gun, and I avoid donnybrooks. There is nothing to gain and it's just not worth it, if it can be avoided.

Most people aren't wired to take another person's life and that's a good thing for the most part. I know I would have no problem and I know my wife wouldn't either. Most people can't deal with what comes after shooting someone so they hesitate or find a reason not to shoot.

I say even the most outspoken anti-gun lady in the world....if she's getting her ass beat like in the video with her 3 year old sitting there.....and then she finds a gun under the couch while the dudes upstairs (yes I know makes no sense but she's anti-gun so work with me here)........she's gonna shoot that dude.
she is gonna shoot that dude.
don't **** with a mother. even a stupid one who thinks banning guns is a good idea. don't push your luck.
