Yet another reason why it needs to be crystal clear that carry is legal (whether concealed, open, or in between).
Moreover, deadly force cannot be used on someone for mere possession of a firearm.
Other facts that would lead an objectively reasonable person to conclude that it is necessary to protect himself or another person from imminent death or serious bodily injury must exist before such force may be used.
It’s not that hard.
The guy that attacked him is lucky he didn’t get shot.
If somebody tried to attack me out of the blue I’d assume they were deranged and I can’t rule out me responding accordingly.
It certainly would have been a justified shooting.
