A couple of rules regardless of self defense laws in your jurisdiction:

1) Ask yourself if whatever you’re defending is worth spending the rest of your life in prison. I’m guessing these guys would say it wasn’t now. But if they were somehow convicted defending their kids, they’d say that they would do it again if they had to.

2) Only shoot if you genuinely think your life is in danger, instead of looking for an excuse to shoot someone.
