When deadly force is needed....

[Reba]

This is an example of when deadly force is needed. A traumatic situation for sure but sometimes you do what you have to do. No brandishing, no warning shot, no bravado--just doing what needed to be done to save innocent lives.

This was one of those news articles that just sort of make you feel sick...even though the outcome was favorable in terms of the well-being of those innocent babies. That neighbor saved those babies' lives. He responded to an extremely dangerous situation...violent domestic dispute...and did what is probably the only thing that could have been done (based on the information released to the public so far) to save those babies. Had he just called 911 and stood by, which would have been a perfectly reasonable action, those babies and probably their mother would be dead now. Obviously I don't know exactly what was going through the mind of that sick bastard, but it looks to me like he was going to kill those babies in front of their mother, and sure as sunrise he would have butchered the mother next with that knife he was waving around. Thank God for stalwart neighbors...

That is so true. Unfortunately, a lot of people just stand by and let things like that happen because they do not want to interfere. Happens all the time.
