| 184. How do you do it, talking out both sides of your mouth at the same time |
|
First you won't stop about how an UNARMED bank robber was stopped by a sick little old lady now it's the cops made a good shoot on an UNARMED bank robber.
"I think if it had been you, or we were talking situation in OP, you'd be exceeding what almost anyone expects of a private citizens packing in public"
Again with you knowing what I would do in public in a given situation. I've said it to you before and I'll say it again, if we (you and I) were in a situation like a bank robbery, I am armed and the bank robber is going to shoot you, I'll let him shoot you. I am not there to defend you, I am there to protect myself and my loved ones. Rest assured in that situation, I am not going to play John Wayne, Rambo or any other TV star hero, you would die.

Straw Man, robber wasn't armed. If they had been, I'd go with the sick/old lady before gun carriers |

Good. You have now learned a lesson. Robbers don't always require shooting. Leave guns at home. |
