He tried to fire a warning shot in self-defense?
ERROR... ERROR... ERROR...
Firing a warning shot demonstrates that you aren't in real fear of immediate and unavoidable death or egregious bodily harm, or you'd be shooting the attacker.
In every jurisdiction that I know if, it is only legal to discharge your sidearm if it is necessary to stop an immediate and unavoidable attack.
If this guy encounters a prick for a prosecutor whose propensity is to slice and dice and be creative (not unheard of), he will be in real trouble. |

TO REMEMBER |
| No kingdom can be secured otherwise than by arming the people. The possession of arms is the distinction between a freeman and a slave. He, who has nothing, and who himself belongs to another, must be defended by him, whose property he is, and needs no arms. But he, who thinks he is his own master, and has what he can call his own, ought to have arms to defend himself, and what he possesses; else he lives precariously, and at discretion. — James Burgh, Political Disquisitions: Or, an Enquiry into Public Errors, Defects, and Abuses [London, 1774-1775]. |
