Hi Jeff: I'm not going to quote your message to Margo regarding self defense,
but you probably did the right thing. I can think of one problem though. Suppose
that person had a gun, and came back and shot you. Where would you be then? I
don't have all the answers either, but there is arather thin line between
knowing when to use self defense, and when to not. Glad it worked out for you,
and had I been in your situation, I probably would have done the same thing.
Only difference is that I wouldn't have thrown up when I got home because in
those situations, I get rather agressive and take some terrible chances. Could
tell some rather grusome stories, but won't bother. Good luck and hang in
there. Stew.
