Eh, I think you'd be surprised at how you act with a gun in your face. Most people act very differently than they think they would in situations of extreme pressure. You'd probably give up your wallet just like anyone else. I surely would, as I'd rather live to fight another day than die with some sense of "pride" because I didn't give in to some punk. On the off-chance that the armed robber is willing to hurt me, I'd rather just give them what they want.
I would rather not give them my wallet. If it's easy, they'll just do it again. If I refuse, they may or may not shoot, but no reason they can't shoot you anyway just to dispose of the evidence.
Yea, once again, I think you'd be singing a completely different song if a gun was actually in your face. Unfortunately, I've had guns in my face several times. I've also been shot at and have seen friends of mine get shot and killed. There are times when I fought back and was lucky to make it out alive. Today, I understand that fighting isn't worth it. You're not going to teach anyone a lesson and it doesn't make you more of a man to fight back. But, hey, believe what you want. As you said, I hope you never have to find out, because if you do have to fight back, and something happens to someone, you probably won't feel very good about yourself, even if they deserved it.
If you're frightened of dying, and you're holding on, you'll see devils tearing your life away. But if you've made your peace, then the devils are really angels, freeing you from the Earth.
