Defensive gun use in Philadelphia, PA
I am sure glad that there is a video of this because the verbal description released by the police and the local Fox News affiliate paints a quite different picture. The person with the permitted concealed handgun obviously feels surrounded (note the discussion of him pointing the gun to the left and right) and then an assailant charges him and tries to hit the permit holder with his fists. It is only when the permit holder is being charged at that he fires his gun.

I like how the guy that is rushed by an attacker is the 'suspected shooter' while the guy charging at him is the 'victim'.
How in the world does the criminal actor become the victim?
