I worked as an armored truck driver for a bit and we were always told to drop the bag and give it up.  The driver is supposed to just drive a way w/o the other guy and call headquarters.  It sure would suck to be that other guy, standing there with a gun in your face and watching your armored ride drive away.

Airline pilots don't leave the cockpit anymore either.   Sort of the same thing except the airline doesn't dump it's passengers in mid-air.    :-\ :-\

"Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters."
— Daniel Webster

And here I quote that noted moral philosopher Ice-T. "And how did he go out? He went out like a bitch".  Sorry, but you leave no man behind. The company can screw itself. If they just want the money, I'll help them load it in their car. If they're threatening my partner, we have issues.

Stupid? It worked didn't it. Maybe he just got tired of watching his neighborhood going to shit, and tired of just complaining about it on a forum somewhere.

If you're not willing to die for the principles that you say you live for, those priciples can't be that important.
Children, pets, and slaves are taken care of. Free Men take care of themselves.

Hmm. First, not good to tell the whole world what your procedure was; second despite what you were told, the new game seems to be just shoot armored car guys, so they're not going to just drop stuff and leave anyway.
Anti: I think some of you gentleman would choose to apply a gun shaped remedy to any problem or potential problem that presented itself? Your reverance (sic) for firearms is maintained with an almost religious zeal. The mind boggles! it really does...

Me: Naw, we just apply a gun-shaped remedy to those extreme life threatening situations that call for it. All the less urgent problems we're willing to discuss.

Interesting thread.

When I was watching the video I kept looking for the accomplice of the one being wrestled. Badguys are like snakes. When you see one, there's usually another one nearby.
