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.
It's not about wanting to just fight, but sometimes it's the cause behind the fight. If I had over my wallet, they may or may not shoot anyway. If I resist, hopefully intelligently, then they won't get what they wanted in one form or another. No matter what, if I surrender, there will be a next, and a next, and a next... Until someone is willing to stand up to them. I guarantee you, my dying words won't be, "Here's my wallet, now please don't shoot." But we're all different, and your position on it is understood.
