The same could have been said about plane hijackers prior to 9/11. I have no desire to become anyone's hero in a situation like this, but I am under no illusion that a person committing armed robbery has nothing but peaceful interactions on his mind - such that if he is allowed to leave, he will do so without harming anyone. As far as I'm concerned, if they play stupid games, then they risk winning stupid prizes. I'm not betting my life on the 'they'll leave peacefully' idea.NTexCopRetired wrote:No, we don't know the sequence of events. But I guess we can conclude that every armed robber acts the same way and is very predictable. If you leave them alone, they always leave peacefully. That's how I was trained. If you arrive at the scene of an armed robbery and the suspect is still there, do not provoke or threaten them. They will always leave on their own and you can discretely follow them. When they get home and go to sleep, you pounce and no one gets hurt. Armed robbers, especially these gang bangers, only lash out when provoked. You can bet your life on it.
