The issue with this direct black or white question is it is rarely black or white. I can count on my hands the number of scenarios where I know what I see is what is going happening. A guy walks into a restaurant & starts shooting, pretty much I know what I see. A beating or alleged rape, well do you really know what you see is what is happening?
So for me, my ccw is to protect me & mine. It will often be best to be a good witness & call 911. If you can be 110% sure what you are seeing is what you think it is, then stepping in would be the noble thing to do, BUT there is always the chance it goes sideways & you are into the Zimmerman affect. CCW is a huge responsibility that I am afraid many have not thought thru when they think they want to carry a gun.
