I've said before, they are not going to come walking up waving a gun and give you time to pull your own. I would imagine this happens more often than you'd think and the victims are too embarrassed to report it.
Lol. Tell that to former CNN anchor Lynne Russell and her husband.
the problem with gun nuts is they think just because they carry a gun it gives them immunity from anything.they think, like in the movies, everything goes into slow motion, and the menacing music comes up and you can clearly see the enemy.unless you are very aware of your surroundings and can act in a split second and very accurately access the situation, a gun is useless.Gabrielle Giffords proved that very well.

And here we go ladies and gentleman, leftist meme...
I asked before, who says what you say, you know these gun nuts?
Links please, and be careful if you actually do research on your own, and not parrot what you fellow lefties say, you'll find out those links you provide re ONLY from leftist websites....

Indeed. Its going to be, shoot first, ask questions later.
A Domino’s pizza delivery driver was returning to his store in Hollywood, Fla. when a pair of masked and armed men attempted to rob him. The driver responded by retrieving a gun and shooting at the robbers, striking and killing one and causing the other to flee.
I guess the pizza guy was lucky...

A woman entered Spalitto’s Pharmacy in Kansas City, Mo., claimed she was armed, and demanded Oxycontin from a pharmacist. The pharmacist responded to the threat by retrieving a .45-caliber pistol and levelling it at the robber, which prompted her to flee.
And of course you are a physic, and knew she really did not have a gun...

A woman was walking to her car in Portland, Maine, when a man armed with a knife approached her and demanded money. The woman refused and got inside her vehicle, where she retrieved a gun. The woman then pointed the firearm at the criminal, prompting the thief to flee the scene. (The Portland Press-Herald, Portland, Maine 06/08/15)
She did not "get the drop" and won....
Thousands more at the link above, but as most, those are cherry picked and mean nothing...

The problem with anti gun nut cases is they think just because someone carries a gun they are immune from crime and need not be aware. (I can sling it right back.)
A TRAINED person is aware. I can deliver two accurate shots out to 15 yards (not feet) in 1.6 seconds or less, from concealed. I know people who can do it in .09. That is faster than most criminals with a drawn gun can recognize you are moving and react. I know thousands of people who can meet those standards.
Gabrielle is a biggoted, brain damaged idiot with a vendetta against gun owners. She had armed security who failed to see the threat until too late. That isn't MY fault, but she wants to take MY rights because her security failed.
AND - this is why you carry a back up. Take my primary, I'll shoot you with my other gun.

What if they take your backup? Do you have a backup for your backup?
