I can tell you what almost always happens.

They will almost never come talk to you about it, they will usually just call the cops straight away. As soon as they see you are armed they get all freaky, it sticks in their mind, they start to imagine every terrible scenario and it only takes about 3 to 5 minutes and they have decided that the best safe thing to do is call the cops and get them to sort it out. But they will almost never come talk to you first in a reasonable manner.
