[Porsche-O-Phile]

The average citizen is barely proficient with a toaster, much less an automobile. MUCH less a weapon under duress.

George Carlin said it best: "Think of how stupid the average person is. Now think - half of them are even stupider than THAT!!!" Scary, isn't it? Now think of legions of those people armed with deadly force.

Putting myself in a situation that might call for the use of deadly force, if I happen to have a weapon and a cell phone on me, I'm reaching for the cell phone first, unless the situation requires absolute and immediate intervention. Police are trained for this stuff - I'm not. The only way I'd intervene is if it was absolutely clear that someone was in immediate danger and there was no way to wait for assistance.
