How it used to be

From the we're not gonna take it file:

Back when America was a stronger nation, people would take action to defend other innocent people against bullies and thugs. Because of liability issues, the trend changed and people started to look the other way and not get involved. I am happy to report that this was not the case last night.

Man Pulls Gun On Robbers, 1 Suspect Shot

quote:

However, several holiday shoppers saw what was happening and surrounded the thieves. One of the witnesses to the crime pulled out his gun and shot one of the robbers in the leg.

This sends a clear message to the lawless, that crime is painful and can be hazardous to your health if you are an assailant. This is much better than seeing another marker representing an innocent victim on the Orlando area murder map.

I think the mayor should give these brave citizens who protected this innocent women public recognition for their bravery , as well as a nice Christmas gift in the form of a cash award.
