The robber's response?: "But, I have a bomb."

CC'er's response?: "I don't care. You are not robbing this bank!"

PRICELESS!

(ref: UPDATE: Gun Beats Bomb in Bank Robbery || WXYZ.com | WXYZ-TV / Detroit | Detroit News, Weather, Sports and More)

No one got hurt, no shots were fired, the good guys "won", and the bad guy "lost"... This is proof positive that personal sidearms in the hands of civilians not only works but is also a good thing.

The thing is, if they'd allow more, they'd always have an armed customer and the criminal element would have to take this into consideration every single time they thought to do something BEFORE they did it. Thus making it so they didn't even bother with most of it.

GEE, go figure.
