give him the money and hope he's just not a psychopath

You can only vote on one answer.

Say you and your kids stop at the ATM to pick up some cash.
Say a man with a gun approaches you and want your cash.
What do you think you would do?
Or better yet if you have been in this position what did you do?

This situation is not like that of Ukraine, in any way. Let's say, instead, that a group of 50 MS13 GANGS with weapons kills all the police and moves into your town and starts shooting everyone and killing your kids and pregnant women and murdering little babies.

THAT's what Ukraine is like

@4meAndyou okay so let's go with your example then.
What are you going to do?

@Dainbramadge If I am a woman with kids, RUN. If I am a single man, or if I knew how to fight and I had a weapon, I would stay and fight...just as the Ukrainian men are doing.

@4meAndyou I wasn't trying to start an argument. Just trying to understand.
To be truthful I don't even know what I would do at the ATM. I kind of have a history of doing extremely stupid s*** at extremely bad times.
I don't think Russia is just over there shooting everyone indiscriminately that you describe in your instance. I'm not saying they're not bombing places and killing kids and women. But overall it just keeps escalating.
I just think the Ukraine should be thinking about the people that are needlessly dying trying to keep the cash they just got out of the ATM.
Just my way of trying to simplify it so I can better understand it.

@Dainbramadge I watch video from Ukraine every single day, so, respectfully, I must say that you are not correct when you don't think Russians are over there shooting everyone indiscriminately.

I watched an father and his son go back to their home to try to get their dog, and the Russians opened fire on their car. The father fell down in the street, and died in his son's arms.

I watched and heard an elderly woman screaming as she sat in her parked car at the side of the road, and a Russian tank deliberately turned so that it could run over her car.

I learned that the Russians opened fire on a car carrying an American journalist, killing the journalist inside.
