If it's possible to do so without harming anybody else, I'm going to shoot him in the lower head area. I'm going to drop him like a bad habit. He'll get one instant's worth of warning as I cock it, and the moment his barrel loses alignment with the clerk I'm going to fire a high-end 357.
No hesitation.
A good friend of mine was killed in a robbery after he gave up. He was a cab driver. My kid brother was next on the call rotation. The murderer called me for the ride - I talked to the SOB and dispatched that call. I have no tolerance for armed robbers. I'm going to apply the absolute max legal force I can, on sight, no qualms, no tears.
