If you find yourself in a situation like this, part of your thought process needs to include how you are going to identify yourself to law enforcement when they arrive. If it is safe to do so, a call to 911 to tell the dispatcher there’s a good guy with a gun at the scene might save your life.

My approach will be to keep the gun concealed whenever possible. Don't draw it until you are ready to shoot. Re-holster when the need to shoot has passed.

I don't intend to obey any "lawful order" to touch my gun in the presence of armed officers. My hands will be high over my head and my fingers spread until the risk of being shot by the police has long passed.

That is true, In 1995 Sheriff John Wesley Anderson started issuing concealed carry permits to anyone over 21 with no felony, $60. for Training, $52.50 to CBI for background check, $ 13. Fingerprint fee and firearms training class are issued a 5 year permit. 5 Year renewal fee is about half price. The first thing law enforcement wants you to do is drop you weapon! No problem, bad guys are usually too dumb to drop it, like this guy. “Life is tough, but it’s tougher when you’re stupid.” John Wayne.
