what does someone do at gun point?

Answer 1

Make smart decisions to survive.

Try to judge if they want to shoot you. If so, you have no choice but to either run for it, or try and disarm and kill them. Do whichever one seems more likely to succeed.

IE, running down a street won't work well, but around a corner will. Fighting from 10 feet away won't work.

If you don't think they're going to shoot you, just give them what they want (money etc). Better to let them go with your stuff than to risk death when you don't have to.

PS what's with the "beat him with the gun" answers?

If you have a gun, shoot it. It's a gun, not a club.

Answer 2

I was held up at gun point, working at a gas station in England, in 1982.

After getting smacked round thr back of the head with the gun, I gave them the money - wasn't mine after all.

2 guys risked 10-15 years in jail for aggrevated assault.assault with a deadly weapon & got away with no more than $100 - MORONS. They could probably have got $100 selleing the gun.

Answer 3

well this is what i will do say they come at you from behind and say don't put up a fight and you won't get hurt . first thing i would do is say ha ha ha Jason (make up any name) as you are turning around towards them so you are now able to see what your attacker looks like then since everything is going in really slow motion instead of being afraid you MUST take this time to evaluate every tiny detail especially concentrate on the way the attacker is acting does he look like a thief wants your money/jewelry a bit shaky/nervous like this is the first time he's ever done this or does he look really confident like he is a cold hearted killer/rapist if he/she only wants your money /jewels . don't be stupid just give them to them and act like you don't even care that they are taking the stuff that way they don't feel threatened by you and they won't want to kidnap you as well . of course if you were properly evaluating your attacker you should have a pretty good description to give the cops anyways. now on the other hand if this is someone that wants to take you against your will what i would do is pretend that you are willing to do what they ask but don't go anywhere that will make it easier for them to kill/rap you and try to get in a position where you can take control of the situation by of course either getting the gun from them and / or if can't get the gun away from them at least make it to were you are no longer in the line of fire by pushing and holding it away from you if you can get the gun pointed at the attacker use that time to try to shot him for a couple of reasons one it should make him weaker because of the pain and two if there is any body close enough to hear then they might be able to come or call for help of course the whole time you are struggling with the attacker this is the time to scream bloody murder HELP!!! RAP!!!! FIRE!!!! COPS!!! anything to possibly get someones attention and if you do get a chance to pull the trigger at all just keep shooting until all the bullets are gone that way he wont have any more bullets in the and he wont be able to reload as long as you continue to scream for help & struggle with the gun more likely the attacker is going to try to take off what ever you do try not to let go of the gun for a couple of reasons one then if he does that he may have more bullets on him or he may get away and try to do it to someone else but most importantly if you are able to keep the gun then you might be lucky enough to get the finger prints from the gun and or it might be registered to this person so it will be a lot easier for the cops to catch your attacker and who knows it may even be able to help cops solve other cases that the attacker might of been involved in. IMPORTANT ONLY TRY TO GO FOR THE GUN WHEN YOU ARE 100% POSITIVE THAT YOU ARE NOT GOING TO BE IN THE LINE OF FIRE AND REMEMBER TO START SCREAMING AS SOON AS YOU GOT A HOLD OF THE GUN

First you sh1t yourself. Then, after a few seconds, you think" what is this?" Then you get a feeling of eupohorbia. You drift out of your body. Things slow down. You start thinking about the reasons you should NOT die. Then, if you have the right training, you will start evaluating your situation. Whatever you do, do not let fear get to you. That will be a fatal mistake. Get the muzzle of the gun into a position that it would miss you. A few inc es to the side will do. Then try to disarm your assailant. Never doubt yourself. You CAN and MUST show this thug that you can outsmart him. It is sup prising how much power you really have in your body. Use it. NEVER think about the possibility of losing. YOU can DO IT. Now retrace the steps, and good luck!

Answer 5

There was a guy on Oprah a few years ago that said whatever you do don't get in a car with them - you should fight and run at that point. He said if a person is kidnapping someone and putting them in a car chances are they are going to take them far away, rape and or kill them and it's better to fight and risk your life at the point of getting into the car. But other than that I would let them have everything, cooperate and keep quiet.

Answer 6

Well, id really think about how this guy is acting. Does he really want to shoot me, or does he want sopmething of mine he couldnt get if he shot me? then if he just wanted to shoot me because he could, id rip the gun from him, and beat him with it, until i knew i could get away safely. If he just wanted something, like money or a wallet, id just give it to him. Whatever you dont, dont get scared, it doesnt help any.

And you Penguin goof, by law, excessive self defense is a crime just as serious as robbing, its called battery. If you shoot him after hes down and you are now in control, they could prosecute you for 1st or 2nd degree murder, and i would rather stay out of jail than have a dead robber.

Answer 7

Giggle uncontrollably, and shout 'wheres the camera'? the person with the gun will be so confused they will go temporarily insane giving you the chance to make a run for it. Hurry!!!

Answer 8

Personally i'd try anything to distract the gunman long enough for me to pull my own pistol and shoot him in the eye.

Answer 9

Hand over the money

Answer 10

The pointee or the pointer?
