If that happened here in MA, I doubt the article would say:

Sheriff Joe Chapman told The Associated Press that he was proud of the way she handled the incident.
"This lady decided that she wasn't going to be a victim, and I think everyone else looks at this and hopes they have the courage to do what she done," Chapman said Wednesday.

Marsha would say: "While we sympathize with the victim on the potential loss of her life and those of her children, it is clear that violence is not the answer. The police had been dispatched, and were only moments away when she decided to take the law into her own hands and fatally shoot a man several times, even though he was only armed with a piece of metal."
