[QUOTE="soberups, post: 417968, member: 14668"] Nothing in my wallet is worth shooting somebody for. It is impossible to sit here in my nice safe recliner and speculate about when I would make the decision to shoot. It would depend upon the number of assailants, how well they are armed, and whether I felt they were likely to escalate the violence or run away once they had gotten my wallet. The whole point of having a concealed weapon is that I get to make this life or death decision for myself, instead of having it made for me. A lot has been posted here about "shooting to kill" vs. "shooting to wound." It is a mistake to think in these terms. In a self defense scenario you shoot at center of mass to stop the assailant, and you continue shooting until he is no longer a threat. Your [U]intent[/U] is to stop the threat....whether the bad guy is killed or wounded is outside of your control and not your concern. [/QUOTE]
