Time for victims to shoot back. Long overdue.

~~~

Not intent to be a negative nancy, but I see two problems with that right off the bat, one personal, and one social.

Personally, if you shoot a carjacker, you may well end up spending time in jail and money defending yourelf. Particularly if you have soarass sponsored prosecutor.

Socially, if there are a rash of car-jackers shot, they will possibly change their M.O. to just shooting their victims and taking their cars.

If the person doing the shooting is a good shot, that particular carjacker will not change his M.O. Given the choice of shooting or allowing my car to be stolen, I will shoot and worry about the consequences later.

All it takes for evil to prevail is for good men to do nothing.

Action is risky. That’s why so many are afraid to do it.

In a halfway just world, they would go on offense, hunt them all down, and end it all right there when necessary.

Preferably not to spend a cent on these anti-American/anti-God criminals.

“if there are a rash of car-jackers shot, they will possibly change their M.O. to just shooting their victims and taking their cars.”

Equivalent to ‘just lay back and enjoy your raping’.
Sheesh!!
