I heard an news report on the radio this am about a local home invasion. The reporter stated: "A man broke into her home and pointed a gun at her. He took her into the office and she was able to escape and get to a neighbors house for help. It is unclear what he wanted"
A big mistake people make is trying to get in the head of a criminal. Face it, unless you go around pointing guns in people's faces, robbing, injuring others...you really have no basis to know what they are thinking! It doesn't matter, the best self defense is to either escape (like she did) or, if unable or it is impracticable to escape (like if your kids were still in the house) you need to injure the criminal until they aren't a threat. Don't wait for them to pull the trigger. Don't try to figure out "why" or appease them (not saying not to give up your wallet if demanded...just don't be surprised if they aren't satisfied).
When you feel in danger, get out of there, or get busy wrecking them until you are safe, let the DA and jury try to figure out why.
