It's interesting (or perhaps it's not( that in other non-gun related forums I've seen this same kind of discussion. In some people's opinions the bad guy is allowed to hit you and if you draw a weapon some of those people think you're being disproportionate in force. I guess some think that a violent encounter in the street means the bad guy will approach and announce his intententions and even be honest about it. "I'm going to bash your face in" to some people is not reason enough to get that evil killing machine out and point it at him. "After all, HE'S not armed". "You'd point a deadly weapon at him just for that?".
When do I draw? When I decide I need to. Not when the governor or the DA decides. And my suggestion to anyone who hasn't made up their mind about that is that they should make up their mind. Arguing that someone else on a discussion forum is wrong about when he/she will draw will not protect or exonerate you when you draw or don't draw.
Tried by twelve or carried by six.
