3 am Your front door bursts open.

3.02 You grab your legal handgun.

3.03 You see 5 men in black carrying guns in your living room.

You have 2 secs.....What are you going to do?

Why is it that only LEO's are justified with this 2 sec rule?

I'm going to shoot the bastards and ask questions later. Don't take my original reply as a justification of police tactics. It's just that given all the adrenaline in the situation I'm not surprised at the result and I don't necessarily fault the individual when split second decisions have to be made. This all went down way to fast to expect any other outcome.
