How do you handle this?

[Hoosier]

In this situation, I guess it would depend on how much of a threat I felt these jokers were. My first inclination would be to avoid confrontation, keep my eyes on the punks(s), leave the store, and call the cops with words that include "brandishing" "gun" "armed robbery" and "potential shooting" I'd stay close enough to be a good witness, and try to take note of things like the type of car they were in, the plate number, and detailed descriptions. I may have a permit and a gun, but nobody's paying me to play cop/security guard, so unless there's an immediate and grave threat to health and life, the only person who is gonna know about my sidearm is me.

+1 for the right answer TFOGGER

I agree, this would be the correct procedure.

I think this was a pretty good exercise. We should do this once a month (week?).

I would probably be in jail... I would commence on walking past, turning into a IM hold, grab his pistol and firing it while still in his crotch and blow off his small, tiny, weeny penis... Then shoot the other guys with him just because they are associated with the moron. Two in the head and you know they be dead.

Grab a soda and chill with the store clerk until the PD arrives to haul me off to jail where I then commence to take all the useless members of society and.... end up in isolatation...

Where I would commence to.... nvm.

HAHA.

TFogger hit the nail on the head.

Lol, funny. Not the first time that's been suggested. A lot of people would hate me (like I care) but on the other hand, I would set this country right and get it back on track. What is that track you ask? Read the Consitution and you'll get the general idea! lol.

Couldn't have said it better!

I like the Crocidile Dundee answer. That being said, if you were ninja enough, you could make fun of his gun, and when he attempts to pull it out on you, knock his dumb fucking ass clean out and take his gun.

[Irving]

and take his gun.

It's about time someone suggested this.

[Elhuero]

I would have walked outside and called the cops.
