I've never witnessed anyone being shot, and I hope that I never have to.

I have, and there are a couple of possible things you haven't considered.
1. Real life, "robber" is pulling a fraternity prank and gets shot by a third party.
2. Bystander pulls gun to stop robber, and is shot in the back by the robbers lookout.
3. Bystander rescues damsel in distress in store parking lot, damsel hops in car and leaves, bystander is arrested for armed assault on plain clothes police officer.
4. Bystander misses robber and kills another bystander
It is highly unlikely any real situation will unfold the way you picture it in advance in your mind, so a thorough knowledge of the law and realistic situational awareness are vital.
