I am glad the OP and his car, and the homeless guy are all ok, but the authorities do need to get the homeless guy some help before he hurts someone or gets himself hurt.
I don't know about anywhere else, but in Tennessee, I believe (not 100% sure) it is illegal to shoot anyone from a vehicle even in self-defense. Reasoning behind the law is that you have the opportunity to get away from any danger.
