If they get the drop on you, walk away. But if there's a window of opportunity, I'd shoot the guy. Depends on the opportunity. I've experienced two assaults, off duty. First was two guys, then three guys. First, I drew my weapon and came close to deadly force, but witnesses presented themselves. Second, unarmed, and got rolled for my wallet...not even a knife on me..they were unarmed, that I saw. I was visiting D.C. on leave, never felt so damned naked in my life, I kept thinking to myself, "&*(*#@..damns airlines, city codes, etc, if only I had my glock 23). I still wake up with nightmares about that time. If I had the chance, I would have drawn on them and lit them up..I had the chance, just no way to have weapon on me at the time. Lucky bastards. Guess I'll never see the "Nations Capitol" again. Good riddance.
