Its a normal assumption that not too many people come at you when you have a gun in your hand.03Lightningrocks wrote:E10 wrote: Often, in these situations, just the display of a firearm, without open threat or pointing at anyone, is enough to end the encounter.
Were on earth did that statistic come from?

Re: What would you have done?
See, but this is different, or can be.t_kopecky wrote:Hello all. This is my first post on the forum, and I felt compelled to comment on this issue.
I like the comments above, and wanted to offer a small piece of advice...be careful. I stopped my neighbor from beating his wife by standing on my side of our property line with my pistol behind my back. Had already called the police, and when they showed up, she turned on me and claimed I threatened to kill everyone. I was arrested for Deadly Conduct.
I won't get in the middle of a fight between others, but I will call the police and let them break it up. I enjoy the site...
It all depends. If i was walking the same way and see 4 dudes beating a couple and the girl and/or guy is calling for help, or i see the guy get knocked out and then his girl get knocked out, then i see people come to their aide and then they too get assaulted by the 4 guys, im going to have to do something about it.
I cant just stand there and let a couple get beat on by 4 guys. What if i later learned one or both were killed, or stabbed and i did nothing about it :(
Im not saying charging in with my 1911, but maybe yelling that your armed or telling them in a "nice" way to get the hell out of there. Dont know, im just saying that if my brother, sister, daughter, mother, father were being beat id want someone to help.
