Yes indeed, at that range aiming is not a time consuming event and pulling the trigger takes less than a second. Yet, you still contend someone with a weapon pointed at you can not fire ("pulling the trigger takes less than a second") before you can draw and fire. If you've witnessed this first hand then you have witnesses it first hand. Congratulations. I'll continue to put my money on the person who already has a gun pointed at someone and not the person who has to "act" before the person who is pointing a gun at him "reacts." In fact, I would wager in "contest"  after contest that the person who has a gun pointed at someone gets off multiple shots ("pulling the trigger takes less than a second") before the other person gets his weapon out. I know it goes against the "logic" of "your gun protects you" but that is my position. I applaud you for believing otherwise. And I readily admit (with my closed mind, as another poster calls it) you may be correct. I just don't believe you are. We don't all have to believe the same thing.
