I wouldn't confront any of these guys. I suspect that the reason they are carrying IS so that someone will confront them ... giving them a reason to exercise their right to stand their ground and play out their murder/killing fantasy in real life.

But if you must confront, I offer this advice: Tell them about their stupidity; keep an eye on the gun-toting confrontee's crotch ... Stop when you notice the erection.
