Keep telling yourself that. Maybe it will come true.

1. I would never let someone get close enough to grab my hand. Doing so would put you in much more danger. A BG on average can cover 20 ft in the time it takes a person to draw a weapon and fire. Do you honestly think you will have time to do the same once a person has a hand on you?
OK. Elevators and stairwells are off limits. What else?

Re: Do you practice a phrase to yell if you draw on a BG?

Based on my formal training I do practice a tape loop but it sounds like that's not for everybody.

More importantly, I think it's important to rehearse what you're going to say after you shoot, if it comes to that. Not so much to 911 although that is important, but what are you going to say to the bystanders who think you shot somebody? We often talk about people being unaware of their surroundings, so there's a good chance if people are nearby the BOOM! of a gun is what bumps them out of their own little bubble. Imagine they look over and see you holding a gun and a man lying on the ground. If you're silent but deadly, what's the chance they think you're a good guy?
