Okay... the pastor shot by the cop story got me to thinking...
Say one night, very late, you hear something you know isn't right. Enough so that you grab your gun to investigate.
Now all specifics aside... should you decide to call 911 at this point to notify them of one or more intruders on your property, is it in your best interest to advise them that you are on site as an armed civilian?
Or would this backfire in court in the event you actually had to shoot somebody?
I am thinking that if cops show up on a call like that and see me snooping on my own property with a gun the chances of an incident are pretty high, no?
