That all depends on the situation. There are cases I see myself defending me and whoever I am around and others where I gladly give up the wallet.

You have to assess the situation, and determine, whether your actions would help, or cause everyone to get killed.

I would most likely take the chance and take action. In some cases they have an empty gun and use it for show. You can start by taking orders then try and catch him off guard if you can get access to your own gun quick enough. I dont know, id rather chance it and get hurt and not robbed then get robbed and hurt.

Follow the orders. Hell is for heroes. My 2 cents.

I know the po-po will tell you not to resist. Just go along with the the robber and give them what they want. That is probably good advice... however. Having said that. Here are some more thoughts on this scenario. "Forgiveness is between him and god. Its my job to arrange the meeting." "Fight back! Whenever you are offered violence, fight back! The aggressor does not fear the law, so he must be taught to fear you. Whatever the risk, and at whatever the cost, fight back!" - Col. Jeff Cooper Blessed be the Lord, which teaches my fingers to fight and my hands to war. Psalm 144 "The very first, most important rule of gunfighting is this: have a gun. If you do not have a gun, do not come to the gunfight." - Mark Moritz “There is only one tactical principle that is not subject to change. It is the use of the means at hand to inflict the maximum amount of wounds, death, and destruction on the enemy in the minimum amount of time.” George S. Patton Victorious warriors win first and then go to war, while defeated warriors go to war first and then seek to win. Sun-tzu

Depending on your own level of competence it may be prudent to do what he/she says. If he/she brings a knife to a gun fight shoot him.
