Shooting to scare someone away is a very bad reason to shoot. . .
If he decides to pull out a knife or does something stupid, I'd just fire one towards him, and not hit him. If he pulls out a gun, I'd shoot at him.
I'm shooting to scare the bad guy away. I'll keep shooting until I scare him away. That's why I have the Crimson Trace laser on my hd gun. I'm counting on the red laser dot on his chest to scare him away.
um...this is a joke right?

I plan on aiming for COM, because, like the experienced LEO mentioned above, chances are I'll miss. Since I'm shooting to scare him away, any hit while aiming COM is accidental.
If the bad guy flees or stops, fine. If he dies, well, it's an unfortunate accident. I was only trying to scare him away.

Shoot center mass until the threat no longer becomes a threat.
Not to mention increasing the chances of hitting an innocent bystander who is not immediately visible from your position.I would not try to target an appendage because they are smaller targets, and would more likely be moving, which would increase the probability of missing, and decrease my chances of protecting my family or self from said felonious threat.
