It means to draw your pistol in defense.

If you mess up and do it at an inappropriate time you could really cause yourself a major hassle.
I forget who it was that told me this, but it made sense to me. It went something like this.........All of my life I have recommended avoidence......de-escalation..........but if that doesn't work fight like hell to stay breathing!!! |

I can assure that if you have ever had to do it...or even taken it a step further.....you would remember it.
And would never be flip about it again. |

I've drawn down on so many people, hell, I couldn't even begin to count. Although, 11+ years in Law Enforcement affords you that opportunity.

Don't feel stupid. You're still a kid. You've got plenty of time to learn about life's trivial matters. |

Other than the ARCOM thread, the first time I heard the phrase was in an early episode of Deadwood.

The real question is not whether he is at a carwash or not. It's whether he is at a carwash AND is a lowlife. |
