If you’re not actually in immediate danger of your life, is it worth shooting the bastards or even flashing the gun and risking prison and loss of ALL 2nd Amendment rights?
Nope. Local law is firmly on the side of the thugs in this case.
If you are of the same color as the people a violent mob is 'randomly' attacking (you see a pattern), and you aren't in fear of your life, you are either stupid or a liberal about to experience an epiphany.
'Officer, there were more than thirty people beating the crap out of people 'like me' and they were coming after me!'
BTW, the standard here in ND is 'serious bodily injury or death', not merely the fear of getting killed, and rape is considered 'serious bodily injury'.
Check your State laws regarding the use of lethal force in self-defence or the defence of others.
