mosins are so fun to shoot, you should definitly look into getting one
my friend owns one, it has a fold up bayonet on it lol, it is just obnoxiously loud in comparison to my mauser, the russians must have all been deaf after shooting them around one another.
This is your video to prove your point about unnecessary escalation? What the flying fuck, he just murdered a dude without any physical threat. I would put this murderous psycho behind bars for a long time. I don't give a fuck how much money someone is trying to steal from you, this is unnecessary escalation.
Glad I don't live in a country where people have such ideas about self defense, or property defense. God.
i did say i had no idea of the circumstances of the video, but he quite clearly knew he was about to be robbed, so he intended to stop the robber before he was going to be harmed, would it had changed ur views knowing the robber had a gun? probably, what if he had a knife? probably, why let someone harm you before action must be taken, that view is the same reason that people think a person cant be shot in the back, "oh they were running away from you" yet they are holding a gun, the threat of violence is still there, does this change the circumstances? can one not shoot them now, because their back is turned? Even i will admit, like i did earlier, i dont know the full story of the events, it looks honestly quite crude lol, he just looks like a maniac shooting at someone fleeing, but he probably would have looked the same way if it was reverse rolled. Either way i cant please everyone, and people will have different opinions, and you are completely entitled to having that opinion, is it wrong? i dont think so, we have no idea what all occurred, but ill just say my opinion is ill be damned if im going to let someone rob me, and im not going to wait on the gentleman to waive a gun in my face before i decide that i should bring my gun to the fight.
Sorry Teeth i tried searching for the news release on this, but i didnt find anything, maybe im just a bad searcher lol, idk, but if you find it, then id gladly discuss this.
I always figured they gave everybody guns there to keep the king of England off their lawn, but were too scared to ask them back later. I always like how Xants main argument is "bad guys get guns anyway, no matter what law!" So the point of this whole argument is really that laws dont count for shit. If this is true, why do we even have laws? There is a fine line between a person who is acctually planning to kill you for reals and someone who is turning you into a unlucky innocent bystander.
we have laws to keep the peaceful people in check, because the bad people dont care. Here is a little phrase i learned, it pretty much sums up this, "Locks are meant to keep an Honest man Honest", if the bad guy decides he wants in, he will get in. But if the honest man wants in, he will just wait for the man with the key to open the door.
EDITED: just to put further concrete on my opinion, this is case law, you cant argue with it, this is just how it is.
Tennessee v. Garner, 471 U.S. 1 (1985)[1], was a case in which the Supreme Court of the United States held that under the Fourth Amendment, when a law enforcement officer is pursuing a fleeing suspect, he or she may use deadly force only to prevent escape if the officer has probable cause to believe that the suspect poses a significant threat of death or serious physical injury to the officer or others, oh and robbery isnt a misdemeanor lol.
