“This guy is not a gentleman robber. He's putting guns in people's faces, he's putting them on the ground, and he's threatening them. We want to end this violence before someone gets seriously injured or killed.”
Ray Velboom
“Obviously that's very disturbing that robber would not just point a gun at someone, but actually have their finger on the trigger, too.”
Deborah McCarley
“People who relieve others of their money with guns are called robbers. It does not alter the immorality of the act when the income transfer is carried out by government.”
Cal Thomas
“If it's a mugging, you might not want to give out the name of the victim in case the robber might seek them out to intimidate them from prosecuting.”
Jay Bender
“All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them.”
Bible
“When a robbery victim does not defend himself, the robber succeeds 88 percent of the time, and the victim is injured 25 percent of the time. When a victim resists with a gun, the robbery success rate falls to 30 percent, and the victim injury rate falls to 17 percent. No other response to a robbery -- from drawing a knife to shouting for help to fleeing -- produces such low rates of victim injury and robbery success.”
David Kopel
“Very seldom do we hear of a jeweler being injured when there is not resistance to the robbers.”
Bob Frank
