    It was not me in this incident. I appreciate those who had the confidence that I would not miss. I hope to never have to be in such as situation. But if I am I hope fast and accurate is how the story reads, and if I cannot live through it I hope I die in a pile of brass.

    If I'm sitting in there enjoying a Whopper, I'll continue to sit there a la Jules and Vincent in the diner. If they decide I'm a target, well, that wouldn't be a good decision.
    I call BS, as one cannot ENJOY a Whopper, when the QPC, or Royale with Cheese is available within a mile!

    This was actually based on one of me when I was 10.

    No clue. But I'm thinking if I'm facing 5 bad guys, I'd rather be carrying something larger than a pocket gun.
    It was only 3 according to the news, but, with stupid math, I would have used 5 per, and had 3 left when I reloaded, leaving 18 in case the mopes in the SUV were there and were feeling froggy.

    My bad. But even facing 3 guys, I'd rather have more ammo with me.

    BBI,

    If one was to intervene in a armed robbery, how would that be perceived by the police?

    Would it be investigated like a self defence shooting? Would your gun be confiscated?
