Val,

According to that statute, you would be in trouble as soon as you got any gun out of the car to confront the SOB, whether it is a handgun or a long gun because there is no exception for self defense. Can you argue that you were hunting rapists? That is a joke obviously.

Honestly, I think they should let you go with some community service (i.e., lecturing women on how to make sure they are safe), and if they don't drop the charges they should give you Probation Before Judgment, but I don't know if a PBJ is offered in every state. Of course, I'm biased because I like you.
