If honest citizens would train and carry a gun, the suspects would not still be a large.

You have your rights restored, get trained, get armed, and take your city back from the thugs.

Minding your own business is a survival skill

[carolmirelez]

We all need to step up and take our neighborhoods back!

[Skenderbeuismyhero]

People! Please start taking classes at your local gun ranges and start carrying. It's your responsibility to protect yourself. The cops aren't going to come to your rescue.

Next time, don't yell. 3rd party defense laws, especially after sundown, are pretty robust.

These robbers don't about life so we shouldn't care about giving them heavy time

Brave guy. Probably reacted first without thinking it through. Don't risk your life as well people if wanting to help victims. Either carry a gun or think twice.

Durrrr. Im gonna start an argument with a guy carrying a gun.

Even though they are wrong you cant scold a thug. Well not without something to return the favor. They dont respond to verbal reproof until forced to submit

[thomasstecyk]

Before you yell call the Police? Or while you are yelling. Get a license number? Then you can yell all you like.
