Guilt by association is a view that sometimes leads to just treatment, but frequently does not...
It would be nice to presume an innocent life was spared and two would-be killers (or the passive friends of would-be killers?) were stopped and met a just fate, but somehow I just can't see it that way... that feels too optimistic to me.
I'll leave it at that.

fvcking database errors, I typed a response a lost it.
short ver. in a panicked situation, she not being trained extensively like leo/military in the heat of the moment may have fired somewhat indiscriminantly into the crowd of youths which were threatening her. While she may have not hit the actual ones who were, she prevented them from further attacking and if you associate with criminals esp while they engage in criminal behavior, expect to get what you get. No sympathy from me in that regard. Yes, they're kids and kids sometimes do dumb sh!t but there are always consequences, and sometime you are lucky enough to say man when I was young I did xyz and it was dumb, other times you're dead.
IF more parents got involved in their kids lives and didn't view children as a right instead of a privilidge and responsibility, I think it would go a long way.
