If the attacker is armed, how does shooting his leg stop him from shooting you? How do you guarantee you will actually disable him with your wounding shot preventing him from continuing to attack? How do you ensure you don't damage his femoral artery or other large blood vessel, not stopping him from harming you but ki...

You don't need the hyperbole. Discretely being armed to answer the door, or do anything else in life, isn't paranoia. If you need the weapon you have it, if you don't the other person never knows it's there.

Per KTUU the victim retreated inside and armed himself. If the attacker hadn't fled, with the dog killed he and his sleeping mother would have been helpless otherwise. Being able to get to a weapon provided him the capability to stop any further assault. I know you like your "clever" little "more guns" strawman, but t...

Shooting or attempting to shoot someone is lethal force in Alaska. Lethal force is either justified or it's not. If he wasn't justified in killing him for "pushing him down" he wasn't legally justified in wounding him with a gun either.

It's more likely that he was a bad shot and just happened to hit the guy in the leg. Very few people can shoot for extremities and succeed and some rando handgun owning homeowner is n0t likely one of these people. He's more likely just a bad shot with bad judgement and an inflated opinion of his own shooting skills.

Slogans are a lousy guide to all situations. It is wise to "shoot to kill" an armed assailant...for the simple reason he/she might be able to get off a shot or a stab or something...but this guy was not, apparently armed. A shot in the leg was sufficient.
