      - For all the security guy knew it could have been a water pistol. Anyway, he should have shot to incapacitate, not point blank into the chest. -- nm - Loyola Feb 10, 10:28 10
        
        A)You always assume it's a gun. B) You NEVER, NEVER, NEVER aim to incapacitate. - Ender Feb 10, 10:35
        
        it could have been a carved soap bar, no matter, and when you shoot you shoot to kill, shooting the gun or arm is only in the movies -- nm - zeitgeist Feb 10, 10:31
        
        sorry, but that's just plain retarded. - mafic Feb 10, 10:31 7
        
        Not for me. How many robberies will now take place where the mindset of the assailants will be; shoot the security guy because more than likely he'll - Loyola Feb 10, 10:33 6
        
        no more likely than it was before, I'd bet. if someone has a gun, you have to assume they're willing to use it. anything else is willful ignorance. - mafic Feb 10, 10:38
        
        Fewer robberies than those that WON'T take place because they're afraid they're going to end up 6 feet under. -- nm - Ender Feb 10, 10:37 3

        I phrased mine as a question. Yours was a declarative statement. -- nm - Loyola Feb 10, 10:42
        
        None. Random assailants like this don't often ponder the historical success of their crimes - Will Hunting Feb 10, 10:37
      - Exactly. Guy had a gun and was actively pointing it at somebody. -- nm - Ender Feb 10, 10:27

    - maybe she did something to cause it but not justify it. -- nm - Mel Profit Feb 10, 10:21 4
      - saying she *caused* it is still dicey. there could have been a catalyst (which is what i morbidly wondered about) - kare Feb 10, 10:22 2
        
        I'm thinking that's what he meant. -- nm - kelly Feb 10, 10:25 1
        
        i guess my thinking was that the word *cause* seems to exonerate him in some way - kare Feb 10, 10:28
