Len,
Leave all firearms behind or get some education about their uses.

I've seen a lot of ways a discussion can be slammed down with
patronizing remarks but you get the prize...

Please, please enlighten me, Capt'n, sir. What in your opinion should
I do when I see an attacker or two coming towards my dear wife and me,
definitely planning to rob us from all our money and electronics on
board. Just muggers, with a knife.

Yep: I see what the others are talking about:
if you aim for the attackers with lethal intentions, you WILL probably
miss, but might give them second thoughts.

Wave it around? pop one off in the air? and you might get a belly
laugh out of them.

Yes...I see the trap.
