As a concealed permit holder, I don't particularly agree with the permit holder's actions. The purpose of the permit to carry is to allow the carrier to have a deterrent to an actual threat of one's life. Knocking a hat off one's head doesn't rise to that level. Now, it the assailant was carrying a hammer, tire-iron, knife, or other tool that could easily be used as a deadly weapon, then by all means, pull out that firearm and if that doesn't deter the individual, fill him/her full of holes.You be looking down the barrel of a 9mm with hollow points.

thats not always true though. One example, and it may not apply to this case perhaps might be, say you had a perpetrator who was young, strong and had those 22" biceps we keep hearing about, threatens to beat the crap out of a 70 year old man who is half his size, or it could be a woman for that matter, or even a man who had just gone through back surgery or other unknown factor.
In such a case, the victim could easily be injured beyond repair. A weapon is not even necessary.You get these nut cases who believe wearing a MAGA hat is the equivalent of a guilty verdict, thanks to three years of brainwashing by Democrats and you dont know WHAT they are willing to do.
