Running calls attention to yourself ad, since others are running too, could get you trampled. Better to just pull your weapon and take the bad guy out.


Not every state allows you to carry weapons.

You are absolutely right about that.

 

 

 

Also, what the wanna-be heroes conveniently forget is, in the chaos of everybody running to get away, it would be extremely easy to accidentally shoot an innocent person.

If I see a parked armored truck outside my bank, I don't go in and I move on.  If that truck is robbed,  don't want to be nearby.

Yes, there are a lot of crazies... and a lot of them are stirring up feelings of fear on TV and social media.  There is a difference between being aware of your surroundings and living in a contant state of hyper-alertness.   I recently saw a purse advertised that had a "concealed carry" compartment.   Just stay home and shop on-line, if you are that terrified.
