I have made peace with such a thing.
It bothers me more to have to take an innocent animals life than a wicked persons life who has zero consideration for my life.
My cuz has a .44 Magnum. Callahan special. I’d be afraid the bullet would keep going thru him and strike something else. The thing looks like a cannon.

Logically I agree with you.
But emotionally I doubt that it would be that easy.
If I ever have to take another human life I have no doubt that I will dwell on that moment for the rest of my life. I would wish to my dying day that it had not happened.
I would know logically that that person left me no choice; it was him or me.
But emotionally I would puzzle on and on that if I had shot lower or higher or one less round he might have made it to the hospital and survived.
Most of we humans can not help but carry quilt over the taking of another human life regardless of our logical reasons for doing so.
I am truly sorry that this woman will carry this burden for the rest of her life. I also grieve that her children witnessed their mother killing a man. I can only imagine how that will impact their lives.
That man is truly evil for what he has done to this woman and her family in forcing her to kill him.
