Probably not.
The lead assailant seems to be verifying the victim before kicking his ass, the other guy is largely ignored until he intervenes, and a female assailant rushes back to spit on the victim after the group dispersed.

They are obviously very pissed off at that dude for some reason.

A pack of wild animals. This is why people need to legally carry sidearms.

lmao@the people using this tragedy to shill for their gun fetish.

newsflash - unless you're walking around with your gun loaded and not holstered, it'd have made no difference, the second you get sucker punched right in the fact and immediately hit in the back of the head you're done.

Plus if we lived in the "everyone gets a gun" utopia you people want to live in, the thugs would have guns too, each and every one of them

You missed the "legal" part of my post. Another thing, even if you are a legal gun carry, brandishing it in public isn't legal. One more thing. If one of these thugs sees a holstered sidearm on the side of his potential victim, they are going to think twice about attacking them.

That's in Dupont Circle. A lot of shit goes in that part of DC despite it being in one the "nicest" part of town; thefts, drunken assaults, robberies, mentally ill homeless people, etc. I use to work in the area before I wised up and jumped ship to the Feds to get out of the city. I don't believe this is random, the victim looks like he was very much singled out.

The guy was taken completely by surprise, I seriously doubt a gun would have helped him and making any movement toward it would likely have escalated things even more, for example the attackers taking that gun and using it.

There certainly are situations where being armed could save your life. A vicious attack out of nowhere is rarely one of those.

yeah, the gun people oppose any sort of licensing or whatever. They even want people on no fly lists to buy guns.

Those things probably did have guns.

False. We want the government to actually prove in court that someone on such a list actually committed a crime before their fundamental rights are stripped.

If, by "unable," you mean legally unable, I posit that it's unlikely they aren't felons, considering what we're seeing.

If you literally mean "able," then I don't think they're unable, as they're surely able to buy them off the street.
