Fort Bend was busy this morning.

In the last robbery the bandit was carrying a .22 rifle. Here I guess distance would not be your friend, unless there was cover.

Obviously there is a decision to draw. Do you go up against a rifle, even if its a .22, bolt action, sure. Semi auto?

Get out of the dodge, seek cover, pull and :fire

I found this a bit interesting:

"Fort Bend County sheriff's deputies said a man was attacked while he was jogging in Mission Bend Community Park on Paso Del Sol near Bellaire Boulevard about 4 a.m."

Where are all the antis screaming about how unbelieveable it is to be carrying while walking/running/jogging?
