If she had no gun, as progressive liberals want, it would be just that...Only the criminals would have them. For some reason, a lot of liberals think a law, that would ban guns, would somehow take them out of lawbreakers' hands, totally ignoring the definition of lawbreaker.
Feel sorry for the guy who pulled the gun, but he's the one who took the risk. If he survives, he probably won't attempt that again.
I applaud the law-abiding citizen and her right to protect herself.
