You're going to do what he says, huh?

Even when he remembers that he forgot his mask, realises you probably
ID'ed him very well (remember, you were pointing out how you'd be
observing every detail, that's often a fairly noticable behaviour), and
he asks you to turn around so he doesn't have to look at you when he
blows you away because the look on the face of his victims just before
he kills them interferes with his ability to sleep at night.

Whatever. Think of it as evolution in action. The contest doesn't always
go to the smart, but that's the way to bet.

At that point in the scenario my robber would be gone or dead. I don't
grant the sanction of the victim to thugs. No one's gonna get my Airport
Shuttles, thanks.

(...) I do not live in the US. Define 'readily available'. I can, with a certain amount of paperwork, go down to my local sporting goods store, or outdoor supplier, and pick up a hunting rifle or shotgun. I don't even know what I would have to do to (...)
