I realize many feel that lost of a single item (wallet or purse) is not worth fighting over and probably in some situations they’re right. ID thief will cost you more than the couple dollars you have in there, could take years and a lot of money to clear up.
I agree with Seabear mostly unless it looks like I could get a clear shot with minimal impact on the innocents-

In this situation, with 2 against 1 and so many innocents nearby I would have to let the robbery unfold . If they take the money and run, nobody gets hurt. If I draw my weapon someone if not everyone could get hurt or killed. Now, if the robbers escalate things by showing signs of preparing to execute people before leaving or commit sexual assaults etc. I would have to look for my opportunity to STOP them. All the more reason to be proficient with your weapon.
