I am interested in a discussion as to why a civilian in one instance, and why a LE person in another instance, would muzzle a person they are not in the process of shooting. The Fairfax thread covered part of it, and got me thinking about having a thread dedicated to this one issue.
I have discussed this offline with Gabe and Darryl, and know they have some opinions on this topic. Hope they and others will describe the reasons a civilian or LE person should or should not muzzle someone they are not in the process of shooting.
