Most criminals aren't that smart, are likely to be impaired, and suffer tunnel vision focused on either the goodies they're after, or their escape route. There have been at least a couple of videos circulate that show someone trying to pull off a convenience store robbery while a uniformed police officer is standing at the counter.

BG qualms about shooting someone seem to be dropping. We already see robberies where they come in shooting first, not knowing if anyone is armed. I don't know that being visibly armed is going to make someone start shooting when they're not already of a mind to do so.

I guess I can at least carry it to the toystore and the mall.

So, if you buy a gun in a New Mexico Super Wal Mart, does the manager commit a crime when he carries it out to your car? What about when you're just trying the gun on for size in the store, do you commit a crime because there is alcohol for sale across the store?



Ain't it a shame that politicians have caused us to ask questions like these?
