A good article on 9 Things Never Do While Carrying Concealed

I understand what you meant, even if it doesn't play well for the literals chastising. Don't pull if you are bluffing.
"If I pull I kill." Sounds like a pretty literal statement

Peggysue,
I will add one more "don't."
A few years ago, I had a S&W pocket pistol in 380. It is a bit larger than the newer Kel Tecs and other brands. I carried it in a pocket holster in my back right rear pocket, usually while wearing jeans. Because the pistol is larger than most, the end of the handle would, at times and depending on the jeans I was wearing, protrude above the top of my pocket just a tiny bit. Most pockets completely covered the pistol.
One day, while checking out in a store, with my wife standing behind me, the end of the handle protruding a little and other people close by, she decided to place her index finger on the protruding handle saying, "what's this." She's good about asking questions when she already knows the answer, which was the case this time. I politely told her she should not point out where my concealed carry is.

"6.Never Use the gun to intimidate. I was taught if I pull I kill."
Just so we're clear, the law does NOT give you the right to KILL anyone. It does give you the right to use deadly force to STOP an attack which a reasonable person would believe could lead to grievous bodily harm and/or death. Once the attack is stopped, stop shooting unless you want to go to prison.

I want to know what the difference in brandishing and getting the drop on your opponent is. Somebody has to draw first.
Pipefighter with all due respect to TFL here is a very good thread on exactly that subject
