Making the streets safe...

From the Des Moines Register.

Store Clerk is robbed twice and gets a gun. Would be Armed Robber enters store and Clerk displays gun. Robber flees. No one hurt or killed.

Local Police Chief Judy Bradshaw commented...
...clerks can make a situation more dangerous by adding a second gun to the equation.
“Robbers don’t want to shoot,” Bradshaw said. “They want what they came for. From a public safety perspective there are so many more possible outcomes when clerks arm themselves.”
I wonder what her advice to a potential rape victim would be? I can guess.
