Just curious, in this instance, as we see it on the video, if you are familiar enough with firearms to know that it won't fire in it's current configuration; do you attempt to disarm hoping the bg doesn't realize his error soon enough to perforate you or do you sit on the toilet the rest of the day?
Personally I think I'd go for it, chances are pretty good that said bg doesn't know any more about firearms than his victim. He wasn't even holding it "gangsta" style!!
I think the problem with using deadly force in that situation is that, if you know anything about handguns, you wouldn't be in any fear. None.
But, depending on the situation, I'd be tempted to just call 911, or try to make a citizen's arrest of him and then call 911. After watching the vid, in that close proximity... I think I'd be forced to use reasonable, non-deadly, force to secure the idiot.
I sure wouldn't

This ^^^If I were in the situation and saw the condition of that firearm, that'd give me a prime opportunity to draw and take him out.
