As has been stated...you pull the trigger on someone, YOUR LIFE CHANGES from that millisecond of action based on input based on mindset and training or lack of...A responsible Law Abiding Citizen has to THINK before pulling the trigger, bad guys don't have to think because they don't care about anything but the very second they are living and nothing about the consequences. In that regard the LAC is at a serious disadvantage. This is why training, visualization, and mind set are so important to survive( the courts and justice system and after) any incident where a bad guy is offed.
