In any situation where your life could be in danger, run if you can: if that's not an option, fight back or die. I would never assume a criminal would leave me unharmed after getting what he/she wants, hence the need for an equalizer.

It's not really about logic: it's about not taking chances with your life by putting your future in their hands.

MY guess is if I pull my gun, his will go off faster, or ill have a knife in my eye..... Better yet he shot misses and hits one of my kids or wife...... in 99 % of the cases you give them what they want and htey leave you.
