I'm not physically strong and it's unlikely I can repeal anyone with physical Force

I think they would be running scared if you pulled it out and threaten to shoot them. You wouldn't even have problems of running into trouble unless if you're in some place with high crime rates. If that's the case then maybe move out to another place.

You are allowed to own and wield firearms, but it doesn't give you the right to shoot people except in defense of the country/state. How legal TCs situation is depends on where they live.

Only if you can articulate that you had a reasonable fear for your life. Circumstances are going to dictate that. For example if youre 120lbs and a 268lb body builder is attacking you then youre going to have a better chance at raising self defense than if you was a 268lb body builder being punched by a 120lb man.

Where you shoot someone tends to be fairly irrelevant on whether or not you were justified in discharging a weapon.

Depends where you live. I live in Kentucky, and we have a stand-your-ground law. If they are a reasonable threat, you can use any means to stop them from hurting you, including lethal force.

Just because you can, doesn't mean you should, tho. If there is another reasonable solution, I'd go with it. But, if they are obviously not going to stop, or threatneing your family? In this state you are within your rights to put them down.

If they come into your home, and are punching you? Yes, you can shoot them lol.

um, not embarrassinq.....i quess.

by sayinq that, you can successfully look down on your opponent.

because your opponent will think like this - so, even if i defeat you, then would mean i am a coward then since only cowards would pick on people far lower than his level.

but if you say you are qood in fiqhtinq, then your opponent will think like this - no, i am better, and i can finish you off in less than a few seconds.

see, the first reaction, he will think like he's coward if he do so. so, he's feelinq shameful about himself. but the second reaction, he will feel like he's powerful and more proud of himself.

the human body is a pretty fragile system

short answer yes, you absolutely could kill someone by shooting them in the legs

long answer is yes, but it really depends on what you hit and how much medical attention they're provided immediately. severing an artery is not a death sentence, but it is if there's nobody around that can help slow the bleeding at all and/or transport you to a medical facility. the most dangerous locations are probably knees to thighs, shoulders, neck... obviously the chest would be fatal but there are more than arteries there lol
