Re: What would/ should you do after pulling your gun on someone?
You make a good point, it varies by state.
As I understand it, and I'm sure I will be told if wrong, there is no expectation of privacy in the public sphere, and therefore leaving the recorder on while running errands is ok.
Otherwise every person that ever posted a publicly taken video to YouTube is a criminal, and they aren't.
As for entering the private sphere, it takes no effort at all to hit the pause button on the phone recorder while you're already adjusting your ringer or whatever.
I have also noticed, and I don't advocate this, that when people have bent the rules to catch a bad guy in the act, they just claim the phone recorder got bumped in their pocket and turned on accidentally.How can you have any cookies if you don't drink your milk?

Re: What would/ should you do after pulling your gun on someone?
You covered your muzzle on someone without firing. Why? I was trained never to point a firearm at something without firing. The two follow one another.
Forgive the reminder....
RULE I: ALL GUNS ARE ALWAYS LOADED
RULE II: NEVER LET THE MUZZLE COVER ANYTHING YOU ARE NOT WILLING TO DESTROY
RULE III: KEEP YOUR FINGER OFF THE TRIGGER UNTIL YOUR SIGHTS ARE ON THE TARGET
RULE IV: BE SURE OF YOUR TARGET (and your backstop)
To me it's bad business to cover someone with a firearm without firing. If you don't need to shoot them don't cover them.
This goes for Police too. A Law Enforcement Officer who points a firearm at a person who is not immediately risking harm or is not visibly armed is not properly trained.Last edited by GeneCC; June 17th, 2018 at 11:21 AM.

Re: What would/ should you do after pulling your gun on someone?
I agree. My first move is always to get off of the "X".
If I made the effort and they're still going to keep on coming and fixing to attack I would feel justified in firing. So far, thank the Lord, I've been able to get off of the "X".
What's the point of a firearm? Not to be dead. I figure I'm going to catch some hell. I'm going to get arrested. I'm going to be facing a Cornoner's Inquest. Firearms are a last ditch measure.

Habla Espanol? Usted comprende los MS-13 hermanos si ellos queren sua pequena nina? Verdad?
You deesecalate while preparing to brandish the firearm. They might well be commenting on her. Maybe they're messing with you. If she's small enough to pick up you do so, in your non-dominant arm. You move away from them without inspiring their predatory instincts. Smile but not too much. If you nod to them this sometimes is enough. "Recognize".
Treat them like human beings, cause they are human beings. They're a small clique of men who have been forged by El Salvador's civil war. They are warriors for their people. Recognize and steer clear of them.
A concealed firearm is no substitute for street smarts. I don't have much of those but I have a bit.
