I'm not convinced that video is actually such strong evidence for your case. It doesn't show the criminal arriving for some reason, but it seems likely that if he stepped up to the counter just like a normal customer and suddenly pulled out his gun, the clerk wouldn't be able to react quickly enough to draw his own weapon in response. Also, if a criminal is willing and able to kill their victims, knowing that they are or are likely to be armed just means they'll be more likely to kill victims immediately. Plus, if you significantly increase the number of guns in circulation, there will be more available to criminals, since pretty much all guns used in crimes will have been leally bought and owned at some point. You risk having more petty criminals having access to and the will to use firearms during their crimes like this.
The wider issue isn't clear cut and I'm not sure there is any easy right answer, but I certainly don't think this one example really progresses that debate in any way.
Cherry picked? Nine out of the top ten states for violent crime are red. My point is some idiots out there blame the rise in violent crime on Democrat run cities. Total bullshit.What's your point? Do you think it's the Republicans in those states that you cherry picked who are committing most of the murders?
One of my pistols is double action/ single action, so I would carry it with a round in the chamber, hammer down, safety off. Another is single action, but I can turn the safety off while drawing it from its holster. And the revolver has no safety.I find that it's incredibly important to have a great roundhouse kick available at all times, even when in line in the food court at the mall. It takes about six tenths of a second to flick a gun safety. It takes three tenths of a second to land a roundhouse kick on a mother****er, though.
This video is a perfect example of WHY law-abiding citizens need to have a CCW, PRACTICE AND TRAIN, and be prepared to take out any armed piece of frigging crap who may kill you over a few dollars. Anti-gunners..... THIS CAN HAPPEN TO YOU. The criminals don't give two shits about your life. They will KILL YOU so there is no witness. Get it? Protect yourself!!!!!
You don't understand. I'd be dropping from the ceiling and landing behind you. That's the Billy Badass way to do it. By the time you skin a hand cannon, it's too late.One of my pistols is double action/ single action, so I would carry it with a round in the chamber, hammer down, safety off.

So a roundhouse kick from anyone other than Chuck Norris (whose kicks are so fast they would hit me before he even started to kick) would not be effective.
Can the Democratic run cities be located in red states? Was the rise in violent crime mostly occurring in Republican run cities?Cherry picked?

Does it seem crippling if he's able to practice?What's it like to live in constant, crippling fear?

Has violence increased? Are we living in an epidemic of gun violence?

Except my combat trained reflexes are so acute, there is no “behind me.”You don't understand. I'd be dropping from the ceiling and landing behind you. That's the Billy Badass way to do it. By the time you skin a hand cannon, it's too late.
During, or after the fact?I deal with murders regularly.
I doubt that anyone here is "shitting their pants about it". Most here that "tote their guns" likely do so concealed, so that doesn't play into looking like a fictional character?I am not shitting my pants about it. It's not that big of a deal, except to people who want to tote their guns around all day trying to look like Dirty Harry.
Carrying them around, or owning them to fire in safe, lawful ways?And don't even get me started on long arms. That's just accessorizing, like when Paris Hilton used to cart that stupid rat-dog of hers around.
Are you kidding? It happens about every 5 minutes.
I had an elementary school teacher like that. She could watch us and write on the board at the same time. I'm not sure about her roundhouse kick, but I bet it was good.Except my combat trained reflexes are so acute, there is no “behind me.”
Is that the one who, without looking, could throw an eraser behind her to within 1mm of a talking studen’t’s ear? I knew herI had an elementary school teacher like that. She could watch us and write on the board at the same time. I'm not sure about her roundhouse kick, but I bet it was good.
The county with the highest violent crime rate in California is run by republicans. The biggest city in that county is represented by the Honorable House Minority Leader. You may have heard of him, his name is McCarthy.Violent crime-fighting is mostly addressed at the city/county level, not the state level.
She got one kid right in the forehead with it. I just saw him at the thirty year reunion, and you can still see the mark. The kid did a 180 and turned his life around when that happened. He went on to invent that super loud beep that goes off when your clothes are dry.Is that the one who, without looking, could throw an eraser behind her to within 1mm of a talking studen’t’s ear?

I dont know.What's it like to live in constant, crippling fear?
It's in the video. The host cites the source.Source for that percentage please.
It doesn't always happen that way though. Just like in the video. There were 2 opportunities where that clerk could have counter-ambushed that robber and saved himself if he had been armed.wouldn't it be easier for the criminal/person that hates you to just shoot you/your family in the back before you know what happened??
I don't watch youtube for sources.It's in the video. The host cites the source.
Any smart criminal will just use a silencer and shoot everyone in the back.It doesn't always happen that way though. Just like in the video. There were 2 opportunities where that clerk could have counter-ambushed that robber and saved himself if he had been armed.
Any form of permit or license to exercise an enumerated individual right is an infringement, and therefore illegal.This video is a perfect example of WHY law-abiding citizens need to have a CCW, PRACTICE AND TRAIN, and be prepared to take out any armed piece of frigging crap who may kill you over a few dollars. Anti-gunners..... THIS CAN HAPPEN TO YOU. The criminals don't give two shits about your life. They will KILL YOU so there is no witness. Get it? Protect yourself!!!!!
