The next scenario, folks, and one loosely based on a real situation...
Business requires you to travel to a city in your home state,which gives you the opportunity to see an old buddy from the military. You and he shared some very interesting times long ago in South East Asia and each saved the other's life at least once.
Being your state has a Right To Carry Law, you're properly equipped,and quite legal.
After attending to business, you go to your friend's combination home and antique shop, located in a good neighborhood unfortunately close to some really bad ones. You're greeted like the Prodigal Son,and made to feel at home by your friend and his latest wife,whose the antiques maven of the two.
You sit in the kitchen and drink coffee, while the wife supervises the shop. As you talk of old times,your attention's caught by the sight of an old Model 97 Winchester w/ 20" bbl, situated near the door. Your buddy mentions it's the same one that he/you used sometimes back in the bad old days, brought out since they got the shop going, JUST IN CASE.
As the two of you go into another War Story, the little tv monitor of the shop shows a small group of boys/men in their mid to late teens entering the shop and spreading out. They don't look like typical antique hunters.
Your friend mutters something about shoplifters and says he'll be right back. He goes into the shop to keep an eye on the situation. A few seconds later, you note(Being the careful type you've kept an eye on the tv) that while one boy keeps an eye out the front door, two other have produced handguns and the gang is converging on the cash register and your buddy's wife. Buddy has two goblins on him and a handgun to his head.
You grab the phone and dial 911.As you report the crime, the monitor shows a goblin coming towards the door to where you are,and closing.
Handle it...
