If in fact, Fishs' story is true, he did everything right. He defended himself from the dogs without injuring them. He retreated from a threat till he could retreat no more. If Kuenzli threatened Fish with bodily harm and Fish was fearful for his safety then he acted within his rights of the law. I'm sorry but Fish did not have to know if Kuenzli was armed or not. Unfortunately, for Fish, this incident is a good example of why you do not talk to the police until you have a lawyer; it gives you time to calm down and think more clearly and to go over the events in your head. People can say things they dont really mean in a high anxiety situation. If this case was decided upon what gun and ammunition Fish used, shame on the jury and shame on the justice system.
My favorite quote from the interview done by MSNBC is the following. It truely depicts the naitivity of the mis-informed and anti-gun establishment.
Quote:
Lessler: Mr. Fish knew well what a hollow-point bullet does.
Larson: And the end product of his shooting is going to be death?
Lessler: Yes.
