While I agree with the sentiment, I wouldn’t have killed anybody.
Good people find the idea of ending someone’s life innately abhorrent and will hesitate to do it even if their lives are in danger.
It’s why militaries (arguably) make sure to train it out of people and why abused women and targeted minorities aren’t actually levelling the playing field by carrying a gun with them everywhere.
That said, what you’re describing is one of the major issues with permissive gun laws – it only takes a split second to kill someone (or yourself) with a loaded handgun in arms reach.
