Two sides of the same coin. You are justified in pulling the trigger because you were in fear for your life (it's not a requirement, but other justifications get a little hairier). Once you are justified in pulling the trigger, you pull that trigger as many times as is necessary to stop the threat. If you're confronting an angry ex-boyfriend (your own or your g/f's) it might just take one. If it's a coked-up home invader it might take every bullet in your magazine. Either way, when Sparky turns tail or drops to the ground, thus stopping his advance, you have stopped the threat.
