Carjacking suspects who beat an El Segundo man with a crowbar and set his vehicle ablaze in Hawthorne didn't know they were captured on tape in a 7-Eleven store, police said Wednesday.
Captured on tape. As opposed to captured. Or stopped.
And, of course, multiple feral assailants with a crowbar trump a lone motorist in LA County who's not politically connected, meaning people like you and me...

Something like this happened to me in San Diego back in 1992, just before I retired from the Navy. Driving into the 32nd St Gate mean driving right through the middle of the ghetto, and "incidents" were occurring at an increasing frequency.
I had my Ruger Security-Six tucked under my leg, in direct violation of dozens of federal, state, local, and Navy regulations, and when two young socialists bent on redistributing the wealth approached, all I had to do was lay the shiny stainless steel revolver on the dash for them to see.
No more problem.
Glad I decided not to allow remote bureaucrats to make life-and-death decisions for me.
That's what it takes, g. If we could convince everyone to do it, the shadow of fear over this land would blow away...
I'm amazed when I think of the Olofson case in that regard. He's a Reservist, but having a quasi-machine gun is a felony? Then they take ACTUAL felons and sign them up for active duty and ISSUE them a full-auto?
When I shot competition on a military base once, I saw the locked amnesty boxes, where troops are supposed to drop any found left-over ammunition, because YOU CAN'T HAVE IT IN YOUR POSSESSION ON BASE. Only the MPs/Shore Patrol, right? That's crazy.
