Re: She meant well but her actions were unwise

I do take it as a good sign that people are beginning to be fed up.

I wonder if Walmart security would have been anywhere nearly as heroic to stop a customer car break-in?

Re: She meant well but her actions were unwise

This would actually be a great example of what NOT to do for CHL classes.

In other words, fools rush in where angels fear to tread.

She meant well but her actions were unwise

A woman Walmart customer attempts to stop beer thieves:

http://abclocal.go.com/ktrk/story?secti ... id=8203778" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

I say the responsible thing to do would have been nothing but be a good witness, and having a concealed weapon is even more reason to stay back.

Would she have started shooting at them if she had been armed?

This could have easily ended in tragedy and multiple orphaned children.

Her heart was in the right place, but the risk to reward ratio is very poor.
