Bank Guard pulls gun on robber; robber shoots back at guard

Bank Robber recognized the guard with a gun as a threat and shoots at guard. Hardcore Armed Robbers do not value life, they do not care about you or jailed. If they cared, why would they take a risk to rob a store or bank. They are not as smart as lot of people here claims.

"Weird how people looking to rob a store will go to places where people ARE NOT ARMED rather than engaging in a gun battle."

Why do robbers rob banks, there is always an armed guard there?

This is Why You MUST Have Retention on an Openly Carried Firearm

Open Carry fail: Oregon man robbed at gunpoint of brand new handgun

Guessing a lot of people here live-in low crime areas not high crime inner city. The criminals are different now.

When they rob a store, they are ready to kill. Not sure where you live but, in my area, they will kill you deader than dead. Many stores like the one below places their weapons in view as a warning to would be robbers (note I work in a soda shop in my younger days, we were well armed with weapons in plain view). This store was known to be armed due to the neighborhood.

In my hood they do not care if the business has open carry people or not, they are more worried about the conceal weapons.

Which is why shooting ranges and gun stores are daily targets of robberies...

Same for National Guard armories, police stations, and gun manufacturers.

Never mind. Sorry. I’m using logic again...

"Never mind. Sorry. I’m using logic again..."

It is a far stretched to use Police Stations and National Guard Armories in your logic. There are some criminals dumb enough to rob a gun stores and pawn shops. You need to just adjust your logic a little bit, just a little.

Ok. You’ve convinced me. No one is safe. Ever. Anywhere. Because you found single examples and rare instances.

Let’s ban all guns.

Which proves my point. Self Defense tools need to be EVERYWHERE.

Open. Concealed. Single-shot, belt-fed, crew served, or orbital... The more the merrier...

This is getting tiresome.

If you don’t agree with someone else’s opinion then you just start the name calling because only your OPINION counts.

So here goes!

Only an ASSHOLE would do something like that.

You must be a lot of fun at social gathering.

A concealed carry gun owner was outmatched by three men who robbed her at gunpoint in Streeterville early Saturday. The 23-year-old woman was legally carrying a concealed handgun as she sat on a bench in the 400 block of North New Street around 3:45 a.m. That’s when three men approached her and demanded her property at gunpoint, according to Officer Jessica Rocco, a police spokesperson. The woman turned over her valuables, which included her handgun, according to a CPD report

“Heat” is an Al Pacino/Robert DeNiro film. Worth watching.

I do not OC in inner city crap holes as I am not suicidal. Heck, I rarely even visit them as I avoid them like the plague.

“If I want to ambush someone in war-time, sure. I want to look as weak and unthreatening as I can until it’s time to unleash hell.”

Bears repeating.
