Shoot to kill? Shoot to wound? I was taught: "Shoot to stop the attack." When they stop attacking... you stop shooting. The other thing I was taught: "Don't ever draw your weapon unless failure to fire will result in your or someone you're responsible for's death." That simple truth made the decision to draw or not a "no brainer." (no pun intended)
Have there been times when I wanted to draw? yes... there have been. I didn't, because my life wasn't in danger. When it WAS in danger, yes... I did. Luckily, I didn't have to end someone's life. They threw their gun down and surrendered. May you never be in the position to have to make the decision. It's way too sobering. Michael
