The people arguing against plainly obvious facts are the ones stirring up arguments.
Actually, it's the people "presenting consistent scenarios" contrary to the original post without bothering to inform anyone that are "stirring up arguments." For reference:

Its a beautiful day in where-ever-the-hell-you-live-ville you are at the "insert local shopping centre here" its very busy. But there is evil aloof, a man pulls a gun, and turns in you your direction. You cant tell if he will shoot or not. What do you do?
This totally says how far away he is.

It's also the people who are making wildly unfounded claims about the motivations of their interlocutors who are "stirring up arguments." Sadly, I don't think these people know who they are.

I'd dodge left and then tackle his ass. Then get the gun and figure out wtf is wrong with him

Me, I come from a military family, marines to be exact. So I'm pretty much obligated to fight if someone pulls a gun, I'll try to take his a** down. Hell, I'll take an ENTIRE clip from him if it means it gives someone else a chance to kick him in the groin... Ha.

Again, you cannot disarm anyone unless he is right in front of you. Since disarming is presented as an option the only logical conclusion is that he must be in front of you.

It's also the people who are making wildly unfounded claims about the motivations of their interlocutors who are "stirring up arguments." Sadly, I don't think these people know who they are.
My claims are not unfounded at all.
Another couple of options: "Drop to the floor" "Flee"

Yes, if you're bent on choosing one of the options, that of "trying to" disarm him, you'd better at least be right next to him. But no, the example does not say that. The example doesn't say that at all. It says that as much as the option to disarm an enemy nation implies you have airplanes above it, missiles en route, or troops inside their weapons facilities at present. By the statements which you've seen fit to reason by, "fleeing" doesn't work at close range, so by this 'logic' you've presented, since fleeing "is an option the only logical conclusion is" that he must be a fair distance away.

See how that 'logic' doesn't work? You cannot presuppose the efficacy of each choice, or especially only the one you picked. That's just retarded. I guess being irrational and stubborn is 'manly' in some circles, though. Kudos for your brilliant example. (I'm sure you think the proper adjectives have more positive connotations, but you'd be wrong.)

I can't help but notice that out of the many hundreds of votes this thread has received, only NINE have voted to shielding a close by person...

you selfish, selfish people! *goes and hides behind person who I'm meant to shield from gun*

Is "Scream really loud, make last minute peace with God, and piss yourself," an option? 'Cause that's what I'd probably do.

But Hypothetically, if I was cool and not a pussy, I'd just pull out my trusty drill, which has been proven to be the most powerfl weapon in the universe.

Throw honey behind him because I know only a bear would be bold enough to pull a gun on me!

Point my gun away from the mirror. I really shouldn't scare myself like that.
hahah! I got a good chuckle out of that!
