Interesting and Thought Provoking Article

[UATKP]

My son sent me this link: Street robberies and you - The Basics - AR15.COM
Please read it through at least twice before you comment... I'm really curious about your thoughts on it.
Does this article give you more insight about what you may be dealing with if you should find yourself in this situation?
Do you think what you've learned will change your opinion on whether or not to display your handgun?

That was a great read and excellent advice for many. The only thing that troubled me was advising to draw and go about your business. In NM drawing a gun on someone is a felony, unless you have lawful justification. I would report the incident to Law Enforcement, if the guy didn't stick around or call the cops himself chances are he was up to no good. But, I wouldn't bet my freedom on that. As soon as the gun leaves the holster something did indeed happen. Other than that a very well written article from an experienced officer.
