At times and mostly true but in this case you are talking about someone not sane and willing to die. May have planned to die in which case a threat from a gun wouldn't have much effect on him. Pulling a gun at someone and hesitating might just get you killed.
I know this. I was mentioning it as a way of explaining incomplete statistics.
When I learnt how to shoot, I was taught to not point a gun at a person unless I intended to shoot, and to only shoot to kill. That is still valid advice.

In my line of work that isn't always true but I would suggest it to most.
