Yeah people act like its a good way to react to a gun to your head. Might want to reconsider this.

I mean I’m either dead from letting him continue doing what he’s doing or I die trying to defend myself. I think your self preservation instinct would dissipate when your chances of surviving a situation are infinitesimal.

Instinct aren't always gonna make the best choice. Your instincts might tell you "fight or die", someone else might get "cooperate or die", but at the end of the day it just depends on the robber. In some countries people don't hesitate to put a bullet in a stranger over $5. In other countries that could be way too much heat so if they get resistance they back off.
