two years ago i was walking to my car which was about 4 blocks away when a car full of drunk teenagers started throwing cherry bombs at me. i was carrying a Sig P220 .45.
rather than draw, i figured they were on a one way street going N/B as I was walking S/B. i hurried on foot S/B so by the time they got around the block to find me i'd be out of sight.
granted if they confronted me, and i was outnumbered, i probably would have drawn.
but since i wasn't "in danger" of being injured by the cherry bombs (i.e. they were landing near me but not so close as to possibly injure me) i didn't think i had the justifiable right to use deadly force and fire on their vehicle.
