Armed robber shot in face by armed victim in Texas just days after permitless carry begins
https://news.google.com/articles/CBM...S&ceid=US%3Aen Additionally, no charges are expected to be brought against the victim, as he was defending himself. "He’s being extremely cooperative. He has no criminal history whatsoever," Willkens said of the victim.

Sounds like the victim had excellent gun control.

Fear of having to give a lawyer $30,000 just for starters would be a very real thing if I ever got into a situation in which I had to shoot a bad hombre.

It's always good when I hear someone has no criminal history, that's a clear pass in my eyes.

If I did the same here in Denmark or in Sweden, shot a man in the face as defending myself I could prepare a life in Prison.
You are allowed to defend yourself but not kill the perpetrator. Except if your life is in imminent danger, but even here you can be accused if you used more force than necessary Markus

I never seriously felt like owning a firearm until the Patriot Act was enacted twenty years ago. I had plenty of air guns to play with but just didn't need a gun. The reason was I felt the government was stomping on constitutional rights so I exercised one to thumb my nose at Congress.

Sometimes it involves wanting it more than needing it (maybe a tad too much). Never-the-less 'needing it' often involves failed situational awareness.

That the perpetrator didn't actually shoot at the victim is irrelevant. Live by the sword, die by the sword... |

Rather non-sequitur. But I'm used to that, by now.

The best reason for owning a firearm is because the government doesn't want you to have one.

I know it's not an immediate problem, but with the huge influx of illegals (millions), we will be dealing with the cartel and a corrupt local govt soon, I'm damn glad I don't just have a golf club to fight back with.

I do like the sound of Israeli building codes now requiring a panic room in each house. We could use a panic/tornado/hurricane room in our building codes.
