It is important that we remember attacks like these as the liberal media is fond of telling us that using a handgun to defend yourself against hands and feet isn't a "justified use of force".

Think back to the Zimmerman trial where they tried to convince America that having your skull repeatedly bashed into a sidewalk wasn't life threatening and Zimmerman wasn't justified.

It will behoove us to remember incidents like this in the future. Guaranteed.

My friend told me that his uncle normally carries a pistol, but when you are blind sided it doesn’t do much good.

In CO if you are reasonably in fear for your life or great bodily harm - or even that of another third party you witness being attacked - you can use deadly force. So it does not matter what the liberal MSM believes, the law states we are within our rights to protect ourselves from vicious attacks.

Think back to the Zimmerman trial where they tried to convince America that having your skull repeatedly bashed into a sidewalk wasn't life threatening and Zimmerman wasn't justified.

Yeah, that would have been knee-slapping funny if they hadn't been so serious about it. The notion that we should leave our fate, our very lives, in the hands of a criminal and count on his/her good intentions... Truly laughable.

Yes. Everyone should familiarize themselves with the particulars several cases where someone was attacked, beaten, and later died. Then if the worst case happens and you are attacked and defend yourself with deadly force... If it comes to a trial or even questioning by police you make sure you get it on record "Why I was afraid I'd be killed like xyz in Florida...or pdq in New York. Those poor folks were beaten to death...Of course I was in fear for my life when that punk attacked me."
