Still, hard to say whether I would hesitate enough to get me killed. In Viet-Nam, I and many of my outfit were not inclined to kill and even omitted carring M-16 for personal defense...I once drove a chaplan from Dong Ha to a camp up in the hills late in the afternoon, both unarmed. But 99% of the time I was armed(a medic) but more afraid of mines and RPGs. Things haven't changed much. However, as a parent, I am confident there would be zero hesitation with someone endangering a child.
