Topic	Bank Robber dead at the scene. This is how it should be.
Houston 12/12/18 12:50:30 AM #34:	EzeDoesIt posted... Houston posted... Dash_Harber posted... I used to feel the same, and there is some catharsis to it, but the depressing reality is that mental illness and crippling poverty are often a factor to situations like this. It's a sad situation, but I definitely wouldn't want to reason with an armed person with possible mental illness, as you described. Better safe than sorry, particularly in these cases. No innocent life in that building going about their work day should be subjected to even the tiniest of chances that they wind up dead because of someone like the perpetrator. I respect the thought process but better safe than sorry when talking about human life and death leads us to kill 100 innocent men just to get that one bad one. Not worth it to me. I'm applying "better safe than sorry" to the person in front of them with a loaded weapon (which was obviously loaded, as the robber fired back). Not sure how this scenario applies of anyone innocent dying. --- Time keeps on slippin', slippin', slippin' <cite>Houston posted [p:913981957] in Bank Robbe...
