Shame he didn't kill the robber, but oh well.

This was my thought on it too, now he is going to waste time and money in courts and hospitals draining tax dollars to get that scumbag back out on the street so he can terrorize more people.

Ok so general consensus on the board is, if threatened by a dangerous person, comply and do nothing to protect yourself? Just trying to get a feel of the atmosphere here.

There is more than one person on here though, heck the post 2 above yours is that he should have gone for a lethal shot instead.

complying in this situation (robber with gun) means protecting yourself and others in your group

starting a shootout means risking everyones life

What an idiot. Endangering himself and bystanders. Oh well, at least the mugger got caught.

By complying, you are keeping yourself and others much much safer than resisting would.

a good citizen carrying a gun stopped a guy with one. And if the libs had their way the criminal would be the only one with a gun and would have killed the guy or gotten what he wanted with no negative repercussions.

He should have gave the guy his phone and waited until he turned around to run away. Then pulled the gun out, shot him and retrieved his phone from the now dead robber.

yea shooting people in the back is very heroic

Oh how beautifully ironic this was!



Made a bet with LipeJJ and HylianYoshi that the XB1 will reach 30 million before Wii U reaches 15 million. Loser has to get avatar picked by winner for 6 months (or if I lose, either 6 months avatar control for both Lipe and Hylian, or my patrick avatar comes back forever).

The blue collar English aside, killing a thief in such a manner is murder, because it isn't self-defense but self-justice.

Don't make any more posts in politics threads, please.

EDIT: Apparently this thread is in Nintendo Discussion. Oh well, two birds with one stone then. Don't make any more posts in Nintendo threads either, please.

LOL. Wouldn't expect anything different from you rol. But where does it say he was killed? Apparently someone was shot in the stomach, and rushed to the hospital.

Good, now the mugger won't be doing it to anybody else for a few years.
