If you were me, then I'd be you, and if I were you, then I'd hide somewhere far away.
I am unarmed. But Butler here, my ...ah...butler, has a Sig Saucer in his shoulder holster, two shrike-throwing knives in his boots, aderringer two-shot up his sleeve, garrotte wire in his watch, and three stun greanades concealed in variouse pockets. Anything else, Butler?
Good. Illegal is always faster.
(about his terrible attempt at making a sandwich) It's more difficult than it looks. (Artemis Fowl)
