Having the dude run away after an appropriate show of force that was backed by the ability to become lethal if needed sounds a lot better than entering a physical altercation with someone who may have Hep C, HIV, a weapon, or at any time may gain the upper hand and use the hanhun present to inflict damage.


The act of unholstering your gun and protecting yourself against an unarmed and potentially violent person has ZERO legal hassels when that person decides violence is not smart and leaves and no shots are fired.

If the presence of the firearm does not deter physical violence and the person physically assaults the gun owner or presents a weapon and threatens assault and a shot is fired the legal hassle is not the same as "you shot an unarmed man stealing your stuff"
