Someone unknown forces their way into your shelter filled with loved ones. Attacking them is "deeply psychopathic"? My friend, this is the most natural response to such an event, to the point it transcents time, place and even species.

    Yes, trying to kill them is. There's a world of difference between threatening/attacking them to get them to leave, and genuinely trying to end their life. It disgusting that people try to blur that line.

    Conflicts are messy, unpredictable. The only way you could expect someone to act measured is if they have a lot of experience with such situations. And even then you never know what the other person wants.

    You dont accidentally shoot a guy four times and then have no regrets. The guy here just wanted to kill. Hesistating before you take a persons life isn't especially 'measured', it's just normal human behaviour

    If you pull the trigger on someone without intending to kill you're insane. You can't predictably incapacitate without killing with a firearm.

    This all happens in seconds while under stress. Hesitating is normal, freezing is normal, attacking is normal. Depends on the person. You don't get to think and consider, you react on instinct. In this case, the guy shot the intruder until he stopped moving.
