What I meant was the only time you can use a gun is to defend yourself is to protect your life.

If I were a clerk in a "Stop & Shoot" store and was being robbed, I'd be pretty pissed if I found out that an OD PO didn't open fire when he saw a robbery taking place. HOW MANY TIMES have we heard of these perps deciding just for kicks and grins to just cap the clerk on the way out? Whenever a perp has a gun pointed at an innocent person there is danger the IP may lose his/her life, period.

Warning Shots?
Legally, the firing of a warning shot could actually undermine your claim that you were facing a life threatening confrontation. If imminent danger did exist, you would have fired at the assailant, not have wasted a shot fired as a warning. The fact you had time the time to fire a warning shot could suggest that the danger was more potential than immediate, and your gun should never have been drawn at all. A warning shot may be illegal and you could go to prison for up to 3 years! PC 246.3 says “Except as otherwise authorized by law, any person who willfully discharges a firearm in a grossly negligent manner which could result in injury or death to a person is guilty of a public offense and shall be punished by imprisonment in the county jail not exceeding one year, or by imprisonment in the state prison.” My dear old dad always told me: “The only warning shot justified is one fired 6 inches above the attacker’s bellybutton”
