While the glue dries on some knife handles ...
A man was filming the Occupy Portland protest and the protestors came out to threaten him. They used racial slurs against him, but when they pulled out knives he felt he had to defend himself. He lifted up his shirt and showed them his legally carried concealed handgun. They backed off, but the police showed up and arrested HIM.

yes, they would arrest hime because he used "excessive force". Showing his gun against those brandishing knives is considered an "agressive" move not a "defensive" move (at least here in AZ according to the way the law is written). Unless they "attack me" with the knife I can not even show the gun. Of course, openly carrying does remove that obstacle..
Now, I didn't say the law was logical.... but that's they way it is....
