(3,089 posts)I hate guns and I'm skeptical of those that own them. They're used out of fear, anger, survival and ego. Licensing and ownership need to have stricter requirements.
I grew up around them, mostly illegal, had them pointed at me on many occasions, been shot at on a few occasions had several cousins and uncles killed and one paralyzed.
Having said this, I ask, was this man shot in the back? Was he on the phone with the police to call for help? Was he defending somebody else by placing his body in harms way?
She was in possession of a gun, legally or not. Stress point, parking spot. Really stupid reason. She's scared, maybe angry, he's definitely angry. He's bigger and likely stronger she has this "equalizer" which emboldens her. She thinks, I'm scared but this will scare him away.
He "thinks" WTF! I'm an entitled person and I fear no ***** person, especially holding a gun. I'll show you. He goes after the person holding the gun, not knowing if she's crazy, murderous or really scared and may shoot accidentally. Nobody in their right mind goes toward the shooter without a gun unless the threat is imminent. Not even LEO's would do that. It wasn't heroics it was STUPIDITY. Sure she was the shooter and that will be investigated but he will not celebrate another 4th of July because he was STUPID. That's an entitled man that was used to scaring other people into doing what he wanted. Sound familiar?
NO MORE GUNS
