Caught on Tape

And naturally nobody helped.

Ever notice the same ant farmers who want to force us out of our cars and into public transportation also want us disarmed?

Markie Marxist sez: "Geez, ya know, I never really made that car/gun connection before. But seeing as we want to completely destroy capitalism and eliminate the private sector entirely, while herding Americans into the nightmare of a wretchedly impoverished existence under a ruthless, neo-Stalinist, totalitarian dictatorship under the pretext of saving them from global warming while living like kings ourselves, I do think it's possible that people might just happen to lose their cars and guns and some other stuff along the way. Maybe.
Lose their cars and guns? They'll be working eighteen-hour days in a forced labor death camp on starvation rations on the Alaskan tundra. And those will be the people we like. The ones we don't like won't make it that far."

I have a KelTec .380 in my pocket just waiting for something like this to happen to me.

The victim in the video has the same choice that I have, but appears to have chosen not to arm himself.

Should I, as a passenger on the bus, have used my gun to defend the victim who chose not to be prepared to defend himself?

Knowing that each pull of the trigger is liable to cost me as much as $30K to $100K in legal fees, which I doubt the victim will be able assist me with, being as he's using public transportation himself, I think not.

Now, if the thug had attacked someone TRULY helpless, like the baby, that would be different.

Only when society becomes enlightened enough not to punish Good Samaritans for being wise enough to be prepared will I step forward to defend those who could defend themselves but chose not to.

I'm not going to watch/listen, but Al Gore / environment / "greener" public transport / "Hercules teams" in New York City searching subway passengers... The pattern is definitely there. A mayoral candidate of this city wants to turn a one-mile retail district into a vehicle-free pedestrian zone. NOT EVEN BICYCLES ALLOWED. Come 'n' get it, robbers and rapists!
I wonder what rate of armed resistance would convince violent criminals the odds are too unfavorable. Right now, half the people may own guns but too many are intimidated BY THEIR GOVERNMENTS AND POLICE into leaving them locked up at home. Would 10% do it? 30% The criminals would never know which attempt would be their last, and as the number of defenses goes up, THIER fear would increase geometrically.
Hey, not only criminals but gun-grabbers too.
