Unwritten Rules

[DVN]

What happens with fear rp when one person is out numbered by others, even if they had their gun out first?

Can one person hold an entire room of people under fear rp if he has his gun out first?

For example, a cop is arresting a man and has his taser/cuffs/gun on the man. Then the rest of the mans gang come down the street with their guns out, demanding that the cop releases their friend. Is this allowed?

Just a few things that have always been cloudy to me in terms of fear rp. Could someone explain please?

I feel if the person is out numbered it's the officers/leaders discretion whether they would open fire or not. It's a risk to the hostages safety, but if outnumbered they have multiple angles to attack from.
