240 no offense but thats stupid. so what if the couple had a gun. they were car jacked AT gun point.
even if the white guy had a gun, at that point whats he going to do, take a chance and pull for his gun while he already had a gun to his head? he would be dead in a second leaving his girl by herself. Im sure the white guy did not know what his future would hold, he probably thought they just wanted his car.
if they had a gun the situation would not have changed, from the story i read they wouldnt have had the chance to use it. no one sees a car jacking coming.
those people should be paralyzed.
Personally---One time I was in a pizza joint parking lot, and this ghetto ass car with two thugs pulled in hard and fast, looked both ways, and driver opened door with both of them staring and me/woman as a target. It just felt wrong... their eyes and bodies fixed on me and her in new car looking like targets.
I'm a somewhat militant dude, I had the glock ready as always. I shifted shoulder to show them I had *something*, I put on the stiffest lip I could, and I said pretty loudly "No, motherfvcker... no motherfvcker..." and began to stand up too staring passenger dead in eyes. I couldn't see the passenger's hands, as they were below open door.
It was about to be a shootout, probably. I don't know who they were, but they pull in fast, not even into a spot, just fast and it just felt like it was Go time.
The passenger hesitated for a second, I stopped halfway standing with both hands on glock, still pointed down, but obvious what I was now holding to them. Head shaking "no" at them, lips pursed, waiting for their move.
They briefly said something, passenger got back in, they peeled out.
I don't know what they wanted. They pulled in fast, and pulled out fast. I couldn't call the police, what would I say? Two guys in their 20s acted weird then left? I knew what they wanted, they wanted to fvcking jack me. Not a doubt in my mind. I got my pizza and went home.
