Obviously the video gives limited information on the situation, however I would believe the person being attacked was in danger of taking a fatal blow in that situation. That would justify using force possible deadly force. From the positions they were in in the video i feel like I would be on the far end of the car in the background away from the crowd with the wall at my back. At least I would feel secure that no one would come behind me, the person who videoed it probably was with the attackers. I would definitely call 911 and probably try to get them to back off.

While I know I would likely have to use a gun. I don't think I could live with myself if I watched someone die and could have prevented it.

For a few years, I rode Dart to work... I am glad I moved to the country.

I hope I never have to make the decision to jump in and help out in a scenario like that- because I think it's a no win situation.

When I go to a city I carry a full size with spare mag just in case something happens like this. 16+1 loaded and another 16 spare.
