All I said, is that we all have conceptions of "what" would happen in ALL situations.

That's also why I never read about how police officers get shot or killed by criminals, right? I mean they open carry, right? No one is every able to Han Solo them, right? They also get their man and justice is always served in the courts.

Surely, you didn't pull out a gun and shoot somebody that cut in line, but undoubtedly, I am CERTAIN, you made that person get out of line because you are CERTAINLY righteous and know what's best for everyone - sorta like our resident financial genius, and protector of spending on parts, ParticleWave (who can retire at 37). Oh, by the way, yes I do have a CC permit. It was really quite easy. Paid some $40 or so dollars. Sat in a class. Went outside. Took a picture. Done and done. Just cuz you are a Nutmegger, doesn't mean that other states are so strict.
So, again - show me an actual occurrence. Or you can't? And I wouldn't make the criminal poop his pants, I'd empty the clip. It's not a competition to see who has the biggest dick, it's life and death. Talk about being righteous? The stupidity flows from you like a river.

You'd empty the clip? And potentially hit innocent bystanders, or damage others property, as it's highly unlikely you would hit your target 100% of the time with your adrenaline going and heart pounding.....

I'd hate to be standing anywhere near you at that time.

I'd still rather give him my wallet and spend a few minutes on the phone cancelling my credit cards than spending potentially hours and hours at the police station or hospital or worse....lots and lots of time at the morgue.
