i guess my question would be is it really legal/smart to announce you're armed when someone is acting as threat towards you. In other words when it comes down to brass tacks whether the OP was with family, in a car, or just walking to his mailbox alone is it justified to take an aggressive posture with someone and announce that you are armed if you feel they are posing a threat? I understand that the argument to NOT do so is not smart because what if that person is armed as well. but in general whats the smartest course of action if someone is coming at you (if they are armed the answer is obvious - but if you dont know..then what).
