That's just politeness, am I right?

Nah, just a single encounter with a robber or something.
Either they show their true cowardliness and run away like everyone else, get shot by the robber because they will down anyone with a gun first, or get shot by the police for being confused as the criminal.
They all have this idea that they are some super hero that will save the day, but the chance of that happening is extremely low.
That’s what they saw in the movies (like westerners, or James Bond) and that’s what they’re emulating.
I'm really curious how often that happens.
However small a chance, at least it's a chance
Reminds me of "One a in a million?! That mean's there's still a chance!" from Dumb & Dumber.
Glad you got a happy memory out of it
There is a chance sure.
But they are more likely to die from the examples I mentioned, than they would be the hero.
So no intelligence what so ever.
You're right. I forgot you said it so it's 100% facts. My bad
Let me put it this way: you have a better chance of being hit by lighting or struck by a meteor.
I also carry around a med kit just in case. And a small compass. And various other tools. Always expecting to use none of them.
Maybe it helps I'm in Florida though, so anything can happen haha
