Uh huh, I'll bet "armed customer" actually knew how to shoot his gun, and Mr. Perp **** his pants, that's embarrassing.

The thing about armed self defense is that you never know when you are going to need it. Anytime. Anywhere.

This woman knew her stuff. Took immediate action. Sought cover, until cover left! Removed gun from possible reach by perp.
I want her on my side if gunfire erupts

So, in the interest of full disclosure this wasn't some random civilian with a concealed handgun permit (the peasantry don't get to have guns in Brazil) she was an off duty cop. Clearly one with some experience.

I'm not convinced it was a "regrettable" outcome.

If it's the same video of the women MP in Brazil, according to the Active Self Protection video and youtube comments, she shot him three times with a Taurus PT640 .40 cal.
From all the Brazilian videos he uses, Brazil seems like the Wild West.

She was carrying with an empty chamber. Very interesting. Nicely done though with the right outcome.

If that was karma, it came quickly! How that woman was able to respond so quickly is beyond me. However it was, it didn’t work out so well for the bad guy. Geez!

Think about it - who is out and about in the early morning hours? In many cases the kind of folks you don't want to meet.
I say this as a result of working many midnight tours in an urban area, all we saw were cops, FD, paramedics and mostly victims. To a vastly lesser extent, regular working folk.

Where was she carrying?
I watched the video several times. I could not tell where she was carying. In the purse?
Yes the masses in Brazil can not obtain firearms. Looks like police and criminals are the only ones pack'n

Only if carrying & only if there is no other choice.
