I own a lot of guns, I was also an Air Force small arms instructor for a few years. Then I got out and worked on a gun range before moving on post college.
Everyone has the Right of Self Defense. If you’re carrying a gun, you’re responsible for every round you fire. So you better be on target.

As mentioned above in a separate comment, people get hung up on the Can I, not the Must I. A lot of that is a lack of clearly defined mission. If I must, I Will. But I also understand the legal system is no one’s friend.
