Your property is stolen, including a credit card. Your bank calls to tell you that the stolen credit card was just used at a fast food restaurant right down the street. You and a couple of friends head down the street to confront the thieves.

I would argue that, should this happen, you should go down there expecting an armed confrontation. These people didn’t, and the accused thieves opened fire on the would-be detectives.

Go down there to confront them, while your friends who are heavily armed standby with heavy weapons. If the thieves shoot, you overwhelm them with a large volume of return fire (situation permitting, of course).

Before you argue about whether or not you will be prosecuted, remember that if you are really worried about that, you wouldn’t choose to head up there to confront the thieves in the first place. if you DO choose to confront them, don’t hold back.

Expect to see more evidence that people are sick of the cops simply taking a report and then doing nothing. We might as well do away with most police and simply replace them with an online reporting form.

I wonder how realistic this story is.

Even if the charges were processed in real time AND you called an oddly responsive CC phone person who caught a active charge in progress.

Then you grab a few friends and go to the fast food restaurant to confront the evil doers?

And as Gomer Pyle USMC would say “SURPRISE, surprise, surprise ” that they shoot at you.

Don’t know about your Credit Cards but I can cancel it and have charges denied before I can get a posse together to deal with armed thugs.

If you want to Punish them First you need a positive ID. Then you seek out the best way to handle it with the best chances of surviving and “NO IMPERIAL ENTANGLEMENTS “.

The 3 “S” includes shut up, ok?

Trump assassination attempt. One witness even pointed out the shooter to police before a shot was fired. Crickets.

Sergeant Joe B. Fricks Rules For A Gunfight

1. Forget about knives, bats and fists. Bring a gun. Preferably, bring at least two guns. Bring all of your friends who have guns. Bring four times the ammunition you think you could ever need.

The rest of the PDF is pretty awesome as well.

“Prosecuted” is a made-up word to replace “extortion”, promoted by government employees to gaslight you that the organized crime gang doing it isn’t a protection racket.
