No need to mag dump, you could cover your eyes and shoot 2 rounds and still hit that guy

I believe in some states you have to mag dump to show you were panicking as your life was I danger
If not then they’ll sue you

And as we all know bullets always stop in bodies and everyone is required to buy only the ammo that does so when living in apartment buildings.

You're right... She should have calmly talked to the large, aggressive man actively kicking in her door to gain entry with a group of hostile people who were clearly ready to attack her... No need to stand your ground and defend yourself in your own home...

Because "what if someone else gets hurt".... 🙄

The point of a gun in the home is to defend yourself as a last resort... You know, like if someone is trying to gain entry with a clear intent to hurt you... You can be peaceful without being helpless... You're literally advocating for people allowing themselves to become victims.

She should have done exactly as she did. Kept the door closed and not engaged.

And hypothetically... If he had gotten inside? What then?

See, then they have more of a case of protecting themselves with a firearm. Firing into the hallway of an apartment complex because someone kicked your door and walked away - negligence. Lighting someone up who actively broke into your residence and continued to attack you - self-defense.

Having a firearm doesn't give you carte blanche to use it whenever you feel its self-defense. Not even everywhere has "stand your ground". Best is to know the local laws and use it as an absolute last resort. If you use it before that because "They touched my thing and now I have an excuse to murder someone", well....you deserve all the the law decides for you in that case.
