If you read Goetz's confession he was intent on shooting and an obvious murderous wackjob who should be in prison next to the scum he shot.

Goetz fabricated quite a bit of what he claimed motivated him after the fact. He wasn't the most stable of individuals, so when the police declared the shooter to be a mad animal, he took that to heart.
There are lessons to be learned, including not running and keeping one's mouth shut. If he'd done those two things, Goetz might have been a textbook case for the necessity defense to a charge of illegally carrying a weapon.
