Yes and no. For everyone who has survived some kind of situation that you are describing....there is probably just as many people that didn't survive it and didn't fight back in any way. I for one would rather have the option available for me to defend my self, rather than hope the criminal decideds he doesn't want to kill me or cause me grevious bodily harm to me.
