Damn right. This is why more people need to get their Concealed Carry Permit and carry. When more citizens do this, there will be far less crime. Anyone who doubts this can look at Kennisaw, GA and what they did in the late 70's, early 80's mandating every citizen have at least one firearm (and ammo) in their home at all times. Crime dropped like a rock.

If more and more victims retaliate this will give the carjackers two options: Stop carjacking. Shoot their vctim on the spot to make sure they can't retaliate. You can be sure that not 100% of offenders will chose the first option. So your "hero" does lead to less crime, but the remaining crime will be more severe.

"defending yourself." How convenient for you to be in a position to claim that his life was actually in danger during the decision to fire. He literally shot them as they were driving off. The time to claim self defense would've been to shoot them when he was actually being held at gunpoint. the carjackers were bluffing with the assault rifle. nobody interested in stealing someone's car is going to insist on killing the driver just to add to the frustration of trying to fence the stolen car. and then add to that that the car itself is completely worthless if it has the driver's dead guts strewn all over it. look, i'm sorry that it's conceivable for bad things to happen to good people, but a fucking car isn't worth a person's life. we have laws about murder to keep people from trying to solve all their problems with violence. your fucking insurance should cover you in case of theft. just let the piece of shit survive ffs.

Beautiful. Public defending themselves is a sure way to send a message. You get rear ended and the guy doesn't flee that scene knowing he just hit another car, you call the police right away. The quicker you notify police (which you have to do anyways during an accident) the quicker they can get to the scene and by the time the perps are at your window, it may be to late to place a call.

The sad part is that it is even a requirement to have a permit to carry a gun. It is a right, after all, so the only requirement should be that someone decides it is prudent to carry a gun. I live in a may issue state and they deny people who have no criminal records from having a carry permit all the time. They do so in every case in some counties in my state.
