Don't wanna start a poll...
But, want to ask for some opinions.
We are shown constantly on TV and in the movies that once people feel they have the upper hand by pointing a gun that it is now time to initiate a conversation.
I've actually lost track of the number of times I've exchanged lead with assorted unsavory characters, but vividly recall the one time that conversation ensued after I pointed my firearm at someone.
I was sweating bullets (forgive the pun) until PD arrived.
First question is: If you thought you could talk your way out of the situation AFTER you aimed your gun, would you?
Second question: Would you hesitate because you felt you held the upper hand?
Third question: Have you done it and what did you do?
Statement: Fortunately, to the best of my knowledge, I've never killed anyone in a firefight, although I know I have wounded.
Final question: Does the mere act of brandishing a firearm when under threat mean you are actually prepared to pull the trigger?
Just me being curious...
