It's a shame he didn't have another option - one that responds reliably at 900+ fps or even 2700 fps instead of depending on the racist whims of a mayor who wants to give criminals room to destroy.

Self defense wouldn't work out for the victim of an attack like the ones in Baltimore, not under that city's corrupt judicial system, and that's why Baltimore is dying.
Reason #1 why we will NEVER surrender our ability to defend ourselves.
