[QUOTE="Jam Master Jay, post: 1933177, member: 10421"] I carry a gun because I was taught to be prepared. I'd rather have one and not need it than need it and not have it. In scenario #1 I'd hide, draw my gun, and make sure he didn't come for me. If he leaves without further incident, no problem. I disagree with folks who think that a gun shouldn't be drawn unless you're actually going to fire. I'm not a quick-draw shooter, regardless of practice. In scenario #2 If it's a guy wandering aimlessly with a knife I'd make my way to my car and observe him and be ready to defend myself or simply call the police. If the guy is coming at me specifically I'd draw and shoot. I've never been in a parking lot with gridlines so I could determine if the guy was within 21'. Once it is evident that the guy is armed and is coming after me and has the reasonable capability of reaching me, he's getting shot. [/QUOTE]
