That'a a BIG bet. Robber #2 has a gun in his hand. What's to stop him from simply pointing at the customer who's shooting his buddy and pulling the trigger.

I think I would behave exactly as the customers in the video did. In my opinion this video is spouting nonsense.
:iagree: Maybe not nonsense but it’s easy to “Monday morning quarterback” all these videos. Both of these guys assume that either or both of the customers are actually armed.

Is it just me or is John Correia looking increasingly like he’s about to write a manifesto? :mrgreen:
What Active Self Protection is trying to do is use the situation as a teachable moment for concealed carriers. Training shows that there are far too many people who don't understand how to use speed and surprise to win fights.

Question: do you give a warning or shoot the guy in the red in the back of the head?
A wise man once told me that a warning shot is a shot that was intended to hit the threat but missed. ;-)
I wanted to correct something my friend and that is I wasn't talking about a warning shot. I would never ever do a warning shot. I meant would you verbally telling him not to move. The only problem I see with a verbal warning is you have two suspects. Has far as I know we don't have to announce anything before we shoot.
You are facing two hostile armed badguys who are threatening everyone's lives. I would endeavor to shoot them both before they realize I am armed.
