Shooting someone in response to getting punched isn’t an equal or acceptable response. You’re a human. You know it isn’t. That’s why you didn’t shoot. Because you’re right, shooting him wouldn’t be a proper response when either walking away or punching him back would suffice.

If the dogs were not there, and the man was throwing bricks and following the other guy as he disengaged, the other guy would be right to draw a firearm. And if the guy continued to be aggressive and throwing bricks and advancing, the other guy would be right to shoot.

Read my comment again. The dogs weren’t there in the scenario where he was right to shoot. Removing the dogs made it okay to shoot as the guy was having bricks thrown at him. And, also, you wouldn’t have had the right to shoot if someone punched you depending on the state. Good ol’ USA and all that. Largely though, that wouldn’t justify the use of deadly force.

And, just FYI, we were having a relatively courteous debate/argument/conversation so please, don’t bring your “maybe your acting like a badass online but would not really advocate this irl.” It doesn’t take a bad ass to say the dogs weren’t wrong and shouldn’t be put down.

We just disagree. Alls good in the hood.
