It's pretty obvious this woman didn't have any training. You cannot shoot people for shoplifting. Even if she was able to detain the shoplifter, the crime she committed by shooting her firearm off in the city limits was much larger than shoplifting.

I am all for the 2nd amendment. If you want to own and carry a firearm, that's super. But the problem is everyone thinks what they see on TV is real and that it's super easy when it isn't. Just like the person in Texas the other day who tried to prevent a car jacking but instead shot the victim in the head. If you don't have the training you really can't step into a situation like that.
