Armed Robbery Shows Ineffective Self Defense | Active Self Protection
Remember, the threat during an armed robbery isn’t to the money or possessions; armed robbers are threatening your life. Your Active Self Protection is far more about life than possessions, but if you’re going to resist an armed robbery you MUST do so with ferocity and intelligence!

Im assuming this asshole got caught later.. evidence is overwhelming. He looked directly at the camera. I hope the police didn't consider this just another bodega routine robbery.
It's a fake gun. If you pause the video at late 2:21 and look at the back end of the weapon you'll see it's a b.b. gun. I used to have that model as a kid. You pull on the back end where you see those handles to load it or something.
Active self protection rule number one: reduce your weight if you are overweight, so that you can move fast and make your body a smaller target for the bullet. I am surprised this instructor not follow this rule?
Is it just me or did the guy in blue have mental issues? Just buy his actions and facial expressions, he didn't seem to grasp what was really going on. I think that's why he grabbed for the gun, to get it out of his ear. After that he was fine with the guy being there and I think that is why he didn't try to stop him. Just a thought. Merry Christmas to you and your John. And have a safe and prosperous New Year.
That Robber is an idiot for showing his face.
It looks like the robber was also using a crossman air-pistol.
looks like its a popular bb gun used in a lot of armed robberies, but there is a manufacturer that made a 22lr pistol that looks that same bb gun.
typical for black people
As a 52 year old woman I don't think fighting an attacker would be an option. What can I carry legally to defend myself, I live in the UK.
Im 13 and this is way better than minecraft. This is the stuff that will help people, not minecraft.
and robber was black

Is it better to try and go stealth and get the robber from behind or just make yourself known?
Merry Christmas John!
I noticed the cashier got rid of cash before letting the robber have his way. unless the that part of video was cut out. the Robber took too long.
This guy barely got away.

would it be racist to say that in my experiences its usually always black guys committing these kinds of crimes.
1:07
He should have just grabbed a Slim Jim

He didn't even take that many money :(
A super wedgy would have took the robber out of the fight
Quick question : if we were armed which body part should we go for to drop that guy before he shot back ?
The guy was stronger and a lot bigger and they couldn't take the gun, the first guy was just pushing it away from his head
your asking the Pot Bellied Elf to launch an attack? ?? are you FKNG kidding me !! it would have been an INSTANT SUICIDE MISSION
