And if they do, in most cases they will only use it to _threaten_ you. Thye
are out to get your stuff, not to kill you, and they will use the gun to
persuade you to let them walk away with all your goodies. Most people still
won't kill you unless they have to. And if you're pointing a gun back at
them, that counts for "they have to".
