Funny Political Cartoons XIII

Why is it better than letting the shooter have his way? If his target is not you, isn't it better to be unnoticed?
Wild West showdowns are exactly what we were talking about. I believe the example given was inside a church. But hey, your armed citizen can shoot from the cover of his fellow parishioners, I suppose. If he wants to put them in danger too.

I'm assuming a rational shooter. This implies he's trying to accomplish something other than destruction for its own sake. This in turn means he's not 'spraying bullets at every available target'. In trying to stop him, you've changed your status from unimportant bystander to obstacle, assuming you weren't the target in the first place. This raises the stakes considerably as far as you are concerned.

Why do you assume the good guy knows baddie's position? Why do you assume baddie isn't aware of good guy until he shoots?

But they don't necessarily go up for the armed citizen.

 

This is a cartoon thread. If you want to discuss this start a new thread.

 

A gallon of diesel weighs about 7 pounds. How do you get over 20lbs of CO2 from 7 lbs of diesel? Never mind.......I know now.

 

So you can post with actual words, but I can't? You were part of the same discussion.
