As much as I question the value of hypothetical CC situations and inasmuch as it's too cold and rainy to go out, I'm gonna' pose a "what-if" situation here. Given the weather forecast, speedy answers are not necessary.
Let's pretend that these misbegotten juveniles attacked a duly licensed Texas CH licensee on a public transport medium in say Dallas, Houston, Tyler, Austin or somewhere else in Texas. Fearing further injury and perhaps death, our Texas CH licensee finally pulls his Glock and blasts the larger and apparent leader of this gang of gutter mini-rats. The other mini-rats start screaming, crying and run for their worthless lifes. What should be done with our Texas CHL hero in this scenario?
WWYD if it was you on the public transport being attacked by children?
