To bad she wasn't a better shot. They messed with the wrong MOTHER.

That is an adult's rationalization. Kids do not see the world the same way. There is no certainty that they would need therapy but it wouldn't be a bad thing.

my baby grew up understanding I would protect her.

She was maybe 3 the first time she seen me target shooting to sight in a gun for a friend.

Well, the answer to minimizing crimes and preventing people from needing a gun to feel safe isn't going to be to take guns away from law abiding citizens. No matter what laws are put in place, even banning the manufacturing of any and all firearms, would not keep criminals from devising ways to prey on others. A gun is a great equalizing factor for victims. A petite woman can chase off a 300# bad-intentioned man with a gun where she might not be able to do it with physical force. The focus should be on preventing people from wanting to commit crimes in the first place and also to deal with criminals so that they do not/cannot commit crimes again in the future.

Gun ban proponents always seem to forget that guns don't commit crimes, good people with guns don't commit crimes, bad people with or without guns commit crimes.

Well said

You can aim to wound as well....not every shot has to be to a vital organ.

No way Jose.

In a pressure situation with a moving target this would be almost impossible. Looks good in the movies though which is where most people get the notion.

And if you miss which you most assuredly will do your attacker will right on you.

That is why when it's on you have to take them out. With no hesitation.

Police, military and law enforcement are taught to shoot for body mass

I was taught one shot one kill and go for the head shot

Maybe so but it would make it a lot harder to commit violent crimes.

Most of these criminals don't have the balls to try and impose their will hand to hand. But give them a gun and they get courageous pretty fast.

Centre of mass is definitely the safest way to nullify your attacker.

And has the highest probability of success.
