I manage a pizza place and have been held up at gun point. Until you have had a gun to your face you have no idea what it means to feel helpless.
My only regret is that there wasn't a gun under the counter or on myself to stop the asshole...
I asked him are you serious at which point he pulled the chamber back... if I had known there wasn't a round already in the chamber... I would have beat the fuck out of this guy.

You have that happen to you and then come tell me you don't want to live in a country where gun control is legal...
Do you know why they took the panic buttons out of banks? Because the guy with the gun looks for actions like that and will shoot you. Now, lets assume that the guy robbing the pizza place isn't a total dumb-ass (which he probably was...or black, or something). you think you could reach under the counter and get your weapon out, load it, and shoot before he can pull the trigger? I don't think so. The guy's gonna be jumpy he'll probably shoot you if you sneeze.

I've never been held at gun point because people in my country don't have guns. In my city there has been one gun homicide in the last couple dozen years, and it was done by an American.
Or it could also be because I have one of these at work... http://soldiersystems.net/2011/10/23...ts-c8-carbine/
