ILgunguy Posted August 2, 2022 at 10:38 AM Share Posted August 2, 2022 at 10:38 AM A convenience store owner in CA stopped an armed robbery by shooting the would-be robber armed with an AR-style rifle by using his own shotgun. “In this case, a lawfully armed member of our community prevented a violent crime and ensured their own safety, while being confronted with multiple armed suspects,” Riverside County Sheriff’s said in a press release.

ILgunguy Posted August 2, 2022 at 11:11 AM Author Share Posted August 2, 2022 at 11:11 AM The sherriff's statement is pretty definitive, but it would not surprise me in the slightest that anti's would spin this if given the chance. Here are the details they would have to work with: - Lawfully armed store owner vs illegally armed criminal (with stolen firearms) - Store owner acts to defend life and safety vs a criminal acting with disregard for innocent life and safety through violent, sociopathic behavior - Multiple armed attackers (only 1 made it inside the store before shots were fired) - The criminal had means, motive, and opportunity (verbal commands to store owner while pointing the rifle, steps taken to conceal identity) to commit a violent act and was doing so - The store owner successfully defended his life, and the bad guys got arrested and the one is still in the hospital Still, to the antis this will matter little "because guns!". smh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
