Second Amendment, Baby!

TROY, MO. • Maybe the bank robber couldn’t see very well through the holes in his mask — the face of Chucky from the “Child’s Play” horror movies — as he walked into Peoples Bank & Trust Tuesday afternoon.

After all, it says right on the door that concealed weapons are allowed in the bank. They’re practically encouraged by the sign: “Management recognizes the Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution as an unalienable right of all citizens.”

So when the robber walked out of the bank a short time later with a red bank bag full of cash, maybe he shouldn’t have been surprised that bank president David W. Thompson followed him out to the parking lot. Thompson watched the masked robber get in a Ford pickup parked in a handicapped spot up front, then pulled his Colt .380 handgun and pointed it at the man.

“Sir, get out of the truck,” Thompson, 58, recalled demanding. “You’re not going anywhere.”

Asswipe should be going away for five to ten years. Maybe he should have gone to work at Wall Street.

So what exactly are the bank manager's rights if that citizen calmly decided to drive away?

Even the cops are not supposed to shoot people who are "calmly fleeing".

I find it a little strange that the manager opted for such a relatively "weak" caliber. Perhaps he was thinking the .380 offers some protection from shoot-through concerns? Certainly the manager should be able to keep a more robust pistol at his workplace.

A wonderful tale. Violence was averted, the perp gets his Jail time. Exactly why I believe in concealed as well as open carry. People were a Lot more polite in the days when you just might have a .32 colt or a .38 special under your overcoat. Too much bullying and wild fire going on. A quiet .38 pointed at the head is so much more efficient. He didn't need full auto because he knew when to approach the perp.
This should be taught in high school I believe.
