The concept of "never pulling a weapon unless you are ready to use it" is long gone. People use it for intimidation. They think it makes them a man or something. Shooting someone at ten yards is not impressive; My kid can do that. But if you are man enough to break my jaw with a 2x4, then I'll be impressed.

I accept being wrong all of the time when and if I am. That said, someone has to have a valid point based in reality in order to change my mind. All of my lady friends are subs and they all are amazed that I am open to their input and will yield to them if I'm wrong about something.
It's not just a concept. It's a rule to live (or die) by. If some moron wants to wave a gun around thinking he looks like billy bad ass, he's probably not going to last long.
