[quote=Anonymous]The problem with carrying a gun would have been the public spinning of this story had the perpetrators been shot. You always hear the trite "better to be judged by 12 than carried by six", but had the WaPo headline been "Uber driver shoots and kills two girls aged 13 and 15 walking to the Metro Station", it would have been impossible for the victim to have not been publicly condemned in DC. DCUM in particular would eviscerate anybody ever for using a gun to defend themselves. But here is the alternative and we will probably still trip over ourselves looking for excuses for this type of behavior. I mean, if they had been in school, they would have been working on homework instead of cruising for Uber drivers.[/quote]
