Add another "what if?" to this situation.

All:
I think that Age Ranger probably handled this the best way he could considering the circumstances. I think that maybe we are concentrating too much on when we should use the deadly force of any kind over another type of defense.

I am writing about situational awareness. I hate disarming before going into a prohibited place, but I am always looking 360 degrees around before and after putting the weapon in a safe. A determined criminal can and will defeat this system, but only a few.

I was thinking about the prostitute. He/she could have been an undercover vice member looking for an easy bust. Pulling a weapon might give the undercover police another reason to arrest you. This is an extremely remote possibility, but it could happen.

I am in the camp that believes and practices concealed carry means concealed until the muzzle is facing a direct threat to life, and then it will be too late for any type of retreat, and all doubt will be removed as to my "fear for my life."
