Prosecutors and antis love statements like this, as it can be so easily argued that here we have an admission that the difference between the non-deadly termination of a threat and an unnecessary deadly shooting is demonstrated. I wouldn't want to be hauled up before a grand jury, even in Texas, if I had caused that death and (I stress) there was an issue as to the legitimacy of the shooting. My attitude if I ever fell into such a situation would clearly be shown by showing this posting to the Grand Jury.

"Shoot to kill, then sort it out later."

Reminds me of my advice earlier on the forum, that we should always assume that the whole world will read our postings. Likewise for e-mails.

It was a typical Monday afternoon for John Polonchak until someone ran into his automotive store saying a woman had just been stabbed.

"I had a concealed carry permit so I grabbed my weapon, ran down the road, saw a man down the street waving a bowie knife around chasing people," he said.

Polonchak, along with several bystanders rushed to the woman's aid and worked to disarm the man.

"I kicked the knife out of his hand, kicked him in the face, pinned him to the ground and some other people helped me hold him there til the cops got there," he said.
