with your sympathy. But I cannot agree with the assumption that the youngster had a toy gun in 1 second.
And I assume you do not like my post above. Yes it sounded crude and I meant it that way for a reason. My life.
Are you suggesting that you are going to wait till you are shot before you take action on a person (minor or not) with a gun (real or not) pointed at you?
If you are, then I suggest you re-evaluate your purpose for carrying in the first place. And I hope you are not teaching this thought process to your CHL students. The decision MUST be made long before you face the encounter. I have made mine and prepared to carry it out if/when necessary.
50 years ago it was different than today. You have to consider today's climate which includes a 17yr old killing a Police Officer and setting off a Bomb in Boston. Just because they are young, does not mean they are non lethal.
