Like many others, I believe 100% that the video was rigged to get the result it got. They set up the premise that the only "win" was to stop the BG from shooting anyone. Others have mentioned the negatives built in against the CC individual (position known, wearing gloves, zero practice from concealment, etc.). BUT, no one has mentioned the NON-RELATION to the real world and the fact that it would have been a MAJOR "win" IF someone had stopped the VA Tech shooter after one or two victims, for instance...would saving over two dozen others' lives been a "win"? What if a CC person could have saved ONE LIFE from that horrible massacre? Would that have been a "win"? Or only a perfect scenario counts and otherwise we just give up? THAT is why that video is a bunch of HORSE MANURE...because my CHL is NOT so I can play hero or usurp YOUR JOB as LEO...it is to protect myself, my family/friends, and my property, if possible...and to minimize loss of life AS MUCH AS I CAN as the situation warrants. It doesn't make me a superhero, it simply helps to even the very lopsided odds. I ain't mad at ya, it just boils my blood how these collectivist types so desperately want us to just lay down and die...well I ain't ready to go just yet and I will do what I can to delay that inevitable day.
Exactly, and isn't it funny, that when it serves their agenda, the collectivists are perfectly capable of uttering the phrase: the perfect shouldn't be the enemy of the good?
