Even though I live in Arizona, where you can not only legally carry guns, but apply for government grants to have a pair of 50 caliber handguns permanently attached to either side of your skull for handy "look-to-aim style" firing, I know just how this guy feels.
You see, just the other day, I was out walking my dog when a guy suddenly walked up and
very aggressively asked me: "Hey, what kind of dog is that?"
I feared for my life (obviously) but since I didn't have any of my guns with me (boy, I won't make
that mistake again!), I just put up my fingers in a cross-like form (you know, in case he was a Sonoran Vampire illegal immigrant that was just made up to
look like a wealthy Catalina Foothills yuppie) and ran away screaming "Help! Police! Someone has spoken to me in an unsolicited fashion!"
Anyway, crisis narrowly averted and all that... but I would be experiencing a
LOT less post-traumatic stress right now if I'd only been able to shoot him in the face right there and then.
