I'm sure we will need an entirely new thread to debate the merits of such a topic...

If, UNDER THE RIGHT SET OF CIRCUMSTANCES, I encountered an armed citizen who appeared to be capable of helping until more "OFFICIAL" help arrived, I don't think I'd turn the help down. On the other hand, if an elderly citizen who was shaking uncontrollably offered help, I think I'd help them just go to safety.

Now... this thread ought to get really interesting...

Well you certinly pulled a quick left turn there, didn't you! LOL.

What I was getting at was what would you do if you encountered a man with a gun after you got a call about a man with a gun... Or, if you would prefer, what do I NEED TO DO, to keep you from shooting me.

See what I'm getting at here?

And I'm kind of suprized that there ISN't a law prohibiting that... I imagine that would open up an agency for ALL SORTS of liability if you ask me to help clear a building and shit goes sideways because of something I did/didn't do/did wrong...
