Absolutely. I'd want to be sure that my name was put on the form in the space labeled "Victim," not "Suspect."

Ether branishing by you, or the crime/attempted-crime that caused you to draw.

The former (brandishing) maybe, maybe not. I haven't gone out to read all of the various statutes on the issue, but my hunch is that brandishing occurs when one performs various acts with a weapon
without justification. You may still have to explain
why you drew your gun, but that doesn't automatically make it a crime.
