A clear case of self-defense.
This incident actually makes the case for an armed citizenry. The attack on the woman started on the street above the subway. The men, 7 or 8 according to witnesses, followed the woman into the subway, drug her off a train and started to take her up the stairs. She stabbed on in the chest then outran the others to make her escape on another train.
There were no police who saw any of this in one of the most heavily policed cities in America. Clearly there was no chance that the crime against her person (assault with a follow-up of possible rape, robbery or even murder) would be able to be prevented by the police. She was being taken against her will with no help in sight. So she defended herself.
There are those who will say that no one should carry a weapon. I'm sure that this Christmas morning there is a woman in New York who is extremely glad she's alive to see the sun rise. And she is alive because she had a weapon.
