    Assuming you’re not an insane idiot with a death wish, are you really gonna be doing all that logic in your head while somebody is actively shooting in your general direction? C’mon, now.

      Was it in my general direction? It’s a big place, could very well not be in the backstop. How do I know the shot wasn’t a secret service agent neutralizing a threat, seems quiet now I guess they got him.

        You could catch a stray from a SS agent returning fire almost as easily as you could from the shooter himself.

        The bottom line is, a reasonable person ducks. Only a clown or a troll doesn’t understand that.

          One would think they’d be aiming in the direction the attacker is coming from, which since this isn’t amogus is “probably the other way.”
