K, here it goes:
3 people (2M 1F) walking along the street (they live in the downtown area of a major US city) at night, say around 11pm. The F is grabbed by a guy and dragged into the alley, he has a knife to her throat. as the 2M's are "encouraged" to also enter the alley two BG's come out and confront the GG's. Only you are armed, although the other male has martial hand-to-hand and knife training (and is carrying a knife). BG's are threatening, but it seems to be a "simple" mugging. Do you:
1) go along and just hand over whatever cash and credit cards you have, hoping BG lets girl go? - fearing that if you pull your firearm BG with knife could get slice n' dice happy
2) Pull firearm and get them to retreat (hopefully by pulling it they get the picture and back off)
3) go along unless there is a risk of them discovering your firearm and then you pull, obviously if the firearm is going to come into play, you want it to be in your hands and not theirs
4) something else? (fill in blank)
Quite frequently I am traveling with two other people and I have often wondered what to do when someone else is "under the knife." I know what I would do if it were just my life on the line, but someone else and that makes things hairy.
