So Dilbert, here's two scenarios.

#1 - You're out having a drink with some pals and having a good time. Night comes to a close and you're walking to your car. Some asshole with a knife comes up and demands your wallet. What do you do?

#0 -2 You're out having a drink with some pals and having a good time. Night comes to a close and you're walking to your car. Some asshole with a knife comes up and demands your wallet. You have a pistol on you. What do you do?
So the guy got the initiative on you and is already upclose and personal.  How long is it going to take to get that gun out and ready to fire?  How long will it take to get stabbed?

You are probably the last person I would ever want holding a gun to protect me. A prime example of why people should not have them.
I've grown up around guns my entire life. I'm extremely safety conscious, I've never had any accidents with weapons or found a loaded weapon when it should have been empty.

Why on earth wouldn't you want me to have a weapon to defend myself? You provided no reasoning whatsoever behind your claim that I'm an example of people who shouldn't own weapons.

Your argument is built on fail and supported by nothing.
Oh, I thought it was self-evident. Guess not.
By this, I mean I think the "Hero boy" complex you have displayed in these forum, most likely from playing video games and to much hollywood. Would make you more likely to cause the situation to come to a point where you could prove yourself a hero, thereby endangering everyone around you. I don't think you have sound judgement in this area because you would want to be the guy who save everyone, instead of being the guy who is put in the situation and does what is needed.

And lowing, you may have missed this:

I mean, anybody else who may have been injured. If you're likely to get into a situation where you need to save lives with your gun. You're likely to find it just as helpful to know how to stabilize an injured person (see innocent bystander)  to save their life after the shooting has stopped, assuming you are still alive.
Already said, I am not a doctor, an EMT nor am I a combat medic. but yes, I would try and help to the extent of my ability. I have had limited training in dealing with these kinds of trauma, although I have never used it and might not remember portions of it.

Make ya a deal, you take ALL the guns away from the criminals and make it impossible for them to possess them, and I will only carry my guns to the range. Deal?

Unless it is a compact light weight pistol or you are a gunslinger, you can take him out if so. Plus it helps if you know how to fight hand to hand while the guy with the knife doesn't have hand to hand training. You can grab his knife hand pull your gun and poof.

in #0-2  I would jump in the car and run over his ass because if I use the gun and get a bunch of dilberts on the jury they fry me, but if I run him over with the car they will let me off.

in #1 I tell him to give me his wallet or I will skull fuck him then I block his lunge with the knife, hip toss him to the ground, stomp on his throat, take his knife and wallet, then hit the next bar.

The term we usually use is ( STOP ) we want to Stop them. A gun does this well. Usually when they realize your armed they immediately cease their aggression, If they are Nuts or on something Then you'd really be glad to be armed as logic and reasoning doesn't work with Mad men. Though I have not had to draw down on the latter.

He doesn't need to steal my wallet to feed his children, he could go to church and get plenty of help there, otherwise there's charity, oh and the government would feed him.

@ presidentsheep-  Let's say some guy walks up to you on the street with expired french onion dip and demands your wallet. You are carrying a concealed fire extinguisher because you have found it to be more usefull in most situations.  What do you do?

2. give him your wallet
