California police frowning on self-defense, want gun owners to simply comply with robbers
If a couple of thugs break into your place of business and point a gun in your face, then you would be perfectly justified in opening fire on them, right? Well, maybe not. San Jose police are giving one gun owner a stern tsk-tsk after she defended her property from a pair of armed thieves.

According to ABC Local 7 News, a pair of thieves wearing masks and hooded sweatshirts burst into a San Jose jewelry store at 10:15 a.m. on Monday. At least one of the would-be thieves was armed.

The thieves probably thought that they were going to make off with a bag full of bling, but instead they nearly caught a bullet. The store owner, who was reportedly a woman, drew a pistol and leveled it at the two would-be thieves. She fired at least one shot but did not strike either of them – it is unclear whether that was a warning shot or if she simply missed.

...

In the meantime, the police are giving gun owners a piece of their mind. Albert Morales, the San Jose Police spokesman, said, "We don't recommend (drawing a gun or firing). We would have preferred that they just go ahead and comply with the request or demands of the robbers. Again they were after material items that could be replaced and again our biggest fear is that somebody would have gotten hurt, injured and possibly even died."

Cops hate guns in the hands of the public. It's a job safety issue. It would be much easier for them if they could go to the scene of a crime and shoot anyone with a weapon knowing that only criminals have weapons.

As it stands now they have to go there and exercise caution so they don't shoot the victim and the criminal who may both be armed. They don't like that. It's unsafe for them. To hell with you, they want only to keep themselves safe.

That's what's at play when you're dealing with the issue of pigs not wanting you to have guns, or to produce them, and shoot them.

Not true, for the most part.

Chiefs of police, who are politicians, yes. As they are politicians.

The average cop on the street has a good old laugh to himself when Joe Sixpack lights up an armed robber.

I concur. In addition, the cops (in this case) can kiss my ass. If they don't want me protecting me and my family, post a unit in my door yard 24/7 otherwise it's my constitutional right to handle things of this nature MYSELF. They can't be everywhere all the time so it's my responsibility as a man/husband to do everything in my power to make sure my family and our belongings stay safe. If that means some low-life fuck gets killed trying to fuck with me or my family, so be it. I don't want to hurt/kill anyone but if you push, I'll push back even harder....you can bet on it. The question is, are you willing to bet your life?
Ban guns to "save the children" but killing them in the womb is totally cool......I see; it makes perfect sense now.

They would prefer that shop owners don't resist when they are forced to kneel before being shot in the head also.

If criminals know they won't face resistance, wouldn't that encourage them?

Surely the police don't want an emboldened criminal element.

Or do they?
