This has to happen at some point, right? You don't even need to be a freak, per se. A well-meaning person who carries a gun might easily look at that situation and try to intervene. "Bunch of scary guys in masks assaulting someone" is probably like top 3 good-guy-with-a-gun fantasies. They made 6 Death Wish movies, including one fairly recently. Are you going to tell me that there aren't plenty of people out there just itching to shoot at a gang of anonymous thugs? It feels inevitable.
