(12,754 posts)Implies that she is in a relationship that will eventually involve a "crime in process" against which she will need to defend herself. If so, staying in the relationship, waiting for such an episode to occur, and then emptying her .357 into him isn't far different that the scenario you describe. Getting out of the relationship and avoiding the confrontation would be the most prudent thing to do.
If you are in a relationship where you feel the only way to defend yourself will be to go to the gun store and buy a .357, get the freak out. Don't sit around and wait for the opportunity to use the gun.
It's a lot like the guy who had it in for a neighbor. So, he opened his garage door and sat in the garage waiting for the guy to show up and then shot him. I belive that was covered on DU a couple of weeks ago.
