And just so everyone here understands, it's my 2nd Amendment right to bear arms an an American citizen.

but why? so you can be the hero? so you can possibly start a shootout risking others lives because you thought you should do the right thing simply because you're armed? it doesn't make sense to me. maybe in stackem's case but that's all, and even then i don't really approve. if anything i only see it as a safety blanket, it just makes you feel safe and powerful but when it comes time to use it it's just going to escalade things and people will get hurt. if you really want to do your part, go to police academy or something.
