“He could have shot my son in the arm or in the leg,” said Christopher Holland Sr. “I’d rather see my son in jail right now.”The father said he left the incident in God’s hands and now, several times a week, he drives past the scene of his son’s death and honks.
“I say, ‘Hey, Little Chris,’ just to let him know I haven’t forgotten him.”
Had Wolf shot the perp in the arm or leg, the perp might well have shot Wolf in the chest or head in return. Best to drop the perp asap with however many boolits it takes to stop the assault delivered as quickly as events permit. The night blindness after the first muzzle flash is also a real phenomenon, and probably why Wolf was not prosecuted for shooting the perp in the back.
He (the perp) gets a government handout windfall, spends it all, is awaiting a next installment. He’s broke in the meantime, so decides to make a stop at the thug’s idea of a mobile ATM-another human. Potential cost of transaction in his mind-the human’s life. No big deal, after all, the government itself has sanctioned his receiving free money from the extortion of those who worked for it.
