71 year old man shoots two armed robbers
Incredible video of a 71 year old man who single handedly took on two armed creeps who burst into an internet cafe in Florida. The room was crowded and you can you see his training take effect. He sought cover and then when the robber had his back to him approached, took aim and SHOT, then shot again and again and again and again driving the two creeps out.
Really incredible video and just one more reason we need the right to keep and bear arms!! http://radio.foxnews.com/toddstarnes...-suspects.html How would you handle this situation? |

I'd probably pull out the bear spray and hose them down.
But seriously, it seemed like the older man waited for the right opportunity when they weren't watching him and took control of the situation. I was not there, so I don't know what I would do, but I would plan for it to be something similar. |

This was a fine example of when a quick, determined offense was the best defense.

As MLeake pointed out, there's already a well-established thread on this subject, so let's close this as a duplicate.
