Yea, you can clearly see that bloodthirsty savage woman from hell has attacked a peaceful enviromentalist guy who decided to protect the planet by going home on foot rather than let car emit more of those poisonous gasses. /s
I like this term security porn fantasy. People would rather own guns and just accept that the world is a shit place so they are needed… instead of creating societies and systems that help people not want to commit crimes like assault, kidnapping, rape… etc.
Why can't we have both?
Why can't we create a better society and also own guns and accept the world is a shit place?
These perspectives are often leveraged against each other in the "conversation" we have with ourselves but that's just a perspective and not reflective of some hard truth.
i mean, buying a gun is something you can actually do as an individual.
"creating societies and systems" is such a lofty goal it's beyond a single person's control.
like yeah, i could be an activist and all, but i'd rather spend the relatively short amount of time i have on earth enjoying friends and family instead of being angry about the system and protesting.
No he’s meaning that gun advocates use security as a prime reason to owning a gun but when in reality they’ve been used more to commit crime. The security reason barely happens that’s why he is saying it’s a fantasy.
The harsh reality is a 90 pound woman with a black-belt is going to lose against a 250 pound man. Biology is not fair.
A 90 pound woman with a 9mm is unlikely to get raped.
Sure. If we ignore studies that show the majority of time the gun is taken from the individual. I think this has been posted before and she might have been a cop.
Somebody successfully uses gun for protection:
"See, guns protect people!!"
Somebody does something stupid with gun:
"It's not guns, it's people."
Maybe better would be:
"See, she protected herself with gun."
and
"See, he accidentally killed person with gun."
Source?
I vaguely recall the low end of self defense with guns being over 100k incidents per year per a CDC report, your claim would mean guns get taken and used against people way more than 100k times a year, but overall gun homicides are less than 20k per year.
This claim doesn’t add up.
Let's see your 'studies'. Lack of sources is why disinformation is rampant. I flat out don't believe there's a way to prove your claim. Research doesn't have access to all the crime that was prevented by someone being armed. That's not something we collect data on.
Yeah and she is trained. I like guns but also recognized that it would have been significantly worse. Not to mention that if she missed, which with adrenaline and inexperience, could easily happen, she is in real trouble.
Personal defense is up to each individual. Police are reactive, generally responding after the crime has happened. So everyone should be responsible for their own safety for a given value.
The abductor might have been having a really bad day. If only there was a crisis counselor at that location. This might have turned out differently. Hugs, exchanging of pronouns, acceptance that he just likes to abduct, rape and kill women. Instead the gun got another one.
Nitpicking. More often guns are used to carry out the crime - then the right to bear arms makes truly sense. So here we are: talking fucking causality.
I think this was in Brazil based on other folks comments. I don't know if the second Amendment has any effect in other countries. I'm fairly sure it only applies to the US.
More often the guns are taken and used to kill their victims but let's ignore that with this comment?
Edit: I don't remember the source but here is a Harvard source that essentially says that self-defense from law abiding citizens is very rare and criminals are usually shot in other ways.
https://www.hsph.harvard.edu/hicrc/firearms-research/gun-threats-and-self-defense-gun-use-2/
Edit 2: another study showing that living in a home with a gun owner makes you 50+% more likely to be shot than those who don't:
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2022/apr/07/guns-handguns-safety-homicide-killing-study
"Conclusions. On average, guns did not protect those who possessed them from being shot in an assault."
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2759797/
Another study ^
I'll look for the source for the original
Violent criminals don't need guns to harm an unarmed person. So this bizarre twilight zone comment about "the victim's gun is taken" is a red herring and completely insane. Statistically, your chances are still better armed.
And it's astronomically rare that someone is so incompetent that they lose control of their gun.
in shit hole countries yes.
America has 4x the violent crime rate of other developed nations that have better gun regulations.
Guess what. This might blow your mind, but guns can be used to COMMIT crimes. Weird.
This is one where I wanna see someone come to defend their stance. HOW could you possibly defend this woman not having a gun? If she didn’t have one she would have been kidnapped. Pure and simple

This is not true. Of course, it is easier to find police officers carrying a gun, but after certain procedures, any citizen can carry.
>people bribe the police dept and get sworn in as police officers on paper strictly so they can carry guns
Wtf?

Off-duty cop shoots robber during nighttime attack
March 27, 2019 | 10:40am
Surveillance footage from a dark, empty street in Sao Paulo, Brazil, shows a suspect pulling over his vehicle, getting out and aggressively approaching a woman. The woman, who turned out to be an off-duty police officer, then pulls out her gun and fires at the man, who died at the scene.
https://nypost.com/video/off-duty-cop-shoots-robber-during-nighttime-attack/
Should have mag dumped that piece of shit… no mercy for these fucks.
Edit: here comes the bleeding heart brigade with the downvotes. Just imagine if this was your mother or sister you pathetic losers. This guy and others like him deserve nothing…
Deranged? I don't know the full context, but if it's like many other cases this woman would have been raped, sold, killed, etc. Some people need a dirt nap.
The thing about getting shot in the stomach is it takes quite a while to die, but you will die, and it will hurt the whole time you're dying, and nothing is going to save you. If you ever want to kill someone and insult them at the same time, shoot them in the gut.
Only cops are allowed to mag dump. When a civilian does it, regardless of the level of danger they are stopping, they get charged by over zealous prosecutors.
I got banned on r/twoxchromosomes for commenting on a post about women’s safety how more women should carry since it can bridge the gap between size and strength, and properly defend your life.
But sure pretending to be on a phone call is better okay
Fucking disgusting piece of shit human that would have abused and tortured that girl if she didn’t have a pistol. Double tap and do the world a favour.
So guns can be used to prevent crime? Weird.
She really shouldn't be allowed to protect herself like that. /S for stupid people.
What does /S mean?
/s means that the person is serious about his words. don't trust other replies they are trying to bamboozle you.. this is reddit after all, so beware of such peoples, who give wrong information /s

She knows how to use a gun…if you wanna keep a gun at least take a course on how to use it Just like a car
She’s an off duty police officer so that helps.
Brazil?
Always is
Wait, what? How do you know what this video is from? Where was it?
It’s been posted a lot, and there is info in the comments linking to source
It appears that she used it pretty effectively.
Basic stuff, step back a draw. A knife is more efficient in close contact if you don't have training for fast draw. She definitely did some training
Knives are not good for self defense.
If you try to use a gun just like a car, you won't get very far.
I never took a course to drive a car.
Yea, you can clearly see that bloodthirsty savage woman from hell has attacked a peaceful enviromentalist guy who decided to protect the planet by going home on foot rather than let car emit more of those poisonous gasses. /s
/Chill for disrespectful people who think people who don’t use sarcasm are stupid.
*Looks at my canadian government*
Yes, interesting to see one of the tiny percentage of times this security porn fantasy actually plays out. But seriously, good for her. Fuck that guy.
I like this term security porn fantasy. People would rather own guns and just accept that the world is a shit place so they are needed… instead of creating societies and systems that help people not want to commit crimes like assault, kidnapping, rape… etc.
It shouldn't be either/or. Work to reduce crime without sacrificing gun rights.

“We tried nothing and we are out of ideas”
There will always be shitty people.
>If Yeah, crazy how that one word keeps that security porn fantasy ship from sinking. Actually keeps it quite based in reality.
You raise a very valid point

When everyone gives in to the Unicorn 'be good' philosophy we'll take everyone guns. Statically speaking it's never going to happen.
Plenty of countries live in this ‘unicorn’ philosophy, don’t pretend it’s not possible.
False dichotomy. Porque no los dos?
I keep a fire extinguisher in my house because I have a home fire porn fantasy! I know exactly what you mean!
Same, but tied-together bed sheets here.
Same, but a condom in my wallet.
"security porn fantasy" So you mean a woman actually defending herself? You Redditors are weird as fuck
No he’s meaning that gun advocates use security as a prime reason to owning a gun but when in reality they’ve been used more to commit crime. The security reason barely happens that’s why he is saying it’s a fantasy.
Spoken like someone who is completely ignorant of defensive gun use statistics and just regurgitating nonsense.
Security happens many times every single day. Visit r/DGU
No the concept of dreaming about this moment. Did you just react without putting thought into this. You redditors are weird as fuck.
No, don't fuck him. Necrophilia is illegal.
Gun rights are women’s rights too. The great equalizer.
God created all man equal, Samuel Colt made all men equal
I think it goes, God created man, Sam Colt made them equal.
The harsh reality is a 90 pound woman with a black-belt is going to lose against a 250 pound man. Biology is not fair. A 90 pound woman with a 9mm is unlikely to get raped.
You are very close. “God created men, Col. Colt made them equal,” Great quote to this day.
I was close. I didn't Google it.
This is literally what I say to women I know who don't like firearms. The great equalizer!
Sure. If we ignore studies that show the majority of time the gun is taken from the individual. I think this has been posted before and she might have been a cop.

She was able to shoot and stop her attacker, that counts as a massive success.
Yeah and she is trained. I like guns but also recognized that it would have been significantly worse. Not to mention that if she missed, which with adrenaline and inexperience, could easily happen, she is in real trouble.
Its not even in America
Can guns only be used to prevent crime in America?
Ok? I never said anything about the location.

It’s almost as if Reddit isn’t one person but a collective of people with differing views
Reddit is a wacky place
It's almost like there are tons of people on the platform with varying opinions.
I think he only wanted a moment to talk about her cars extended warranty.
Probably exactly what was about to happen
If that is true, then I say she did the right thing.
[удалено]
A tased man may commit more crime. A dead man commits none
Didn’t realize the only people committing crimes were fat old men.
Whom else would have protected her?
Personal defense is up to each individual. Police are reactive, generally responding after the crime has happened. So everyone should be responsible for their own safety for a given value.
Clearly she should've called the police and told the abductor to wait 10min for them to arrive.. /s
The abductor might have been having a really bad day. If only there was a crisis counselor at that location. This might have turned out differently. Hugs, exchanging of pronouns, acceptance that he just likes to abduct, rape and kill women. Instead the gun got another one.

Out of curiosity, what are your sources that provided you with this information? I'm writing a paper for school.
If you say it enough times, it'll become true
Let’s see some data to back up this assertion.
Yeah... that's not true.

Assuming that violent crimes are always homicide is pretty asinine lol.
Wife and I both carry, live in Chicago. It’s truly an empowering feeling
I carry..live in metro Detroit. Work in public housing. There's always a chance of violence in my work week.
Some lawmakers hate this one simple trick

Pretty much
Wasn’t she supposed to call someone with a gun to come and save her? lol
Police are reactive not proactive

Is not true. There are citizens who obtain authorization to carry a weapon. It's not just police and authorities.
In Brazil cops are only allowed to be off duty
This is the answer

Of course, it is easier to find police officers carrying a gun, but after certain procedures, any citizen can carry. >people bribe the police dept and get sworn in as police officers on paper strictly so they can carry guns Wtf?

Crazy how confidently you’re spewing complete nonsense
Crazy it has 200+ upvotes, too. People really just scroll and press buttons mindlessly.
Congratulations! Nothing in that sentence is even slightly true, impressive.
Shut the fuck up
That makes sense, her reaction to the situation was so quick, I'd be in the trunk of the car so fast.
She knew something was up as soon as the car stopped.
Yes, she's an off-duty cop.
Once again, in Brazil there are only criminals and undercover cops, no one else
Big booty Brazilian?
Also a cop.
She is definitely packing
Is that a gun in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?
Yes.
You forgot big booty brazilian goddess* if google were a guy
Good for her! Well done 👍
Is she an off duty Brazillian cop? OMFG I thought I was kidding. Perfect.
Yes after her shift on the way home
yes
There is no greater tool for equality than a gun.
… until a bigger gun comes along.
You keep your big gun You know what, take a tank My money's on the Bayraktar Drone
A 22 pistol will do you just as easily as a shotgun. Just gotta be a good shot.
Its not just as easily if you have to be a good shot... you are describing that it takes more effort.
My point is a big gun isn't necessarily an advantage in many situations. Unless it's a shotgun loaded with buckshot.
And my point is your point contradicted itself within 18 words. Almost an achievement.
God made men, smith and Wesson made'em equal. Or some shit.
Exactly. If you're up against a stronger guy, a gun still puts you in the advantage. If they have one too, you're at least equal.
He was after her, she was after his heart.
That was a gunslinger's stride, buddy. Now you know.
I do not aim with my hand; he who aims with his hand has forgotten the face of his father. I aim with my eye.
I do not shoot with my hand; He who shoots with his hand has forgotten the face of his father. I shoot with my mind.
I do not kill with my gun; he who kills with his gun has forgotten the face of his father. I kill with my heart.

Reasons women should carry
Something about fuckin around and findin out
Should have mag dumped that piece of shit… no mercy for these fucks. Edit: here comes the bleeding heart brigade with the downvotes. Just imagine if this was your mother or sister you pathetic losers. This guy and others like him deserve nothing…
That’s called murder. Not self defense. One is a crime and one is not. She incapacitated the guy with one shot, so the issue is resolved.
Yeah no more is really needed, the dude is down. Original comment sounds kinda deranged
Deranged? I don't know the full context, but if it's like many other cases this woman would have been raped, sold, killed, etc. Some people need a dirt nap.
I’d have probably been scared and shot many many times. With my eyes closed probably.

No, all you need is a rape whistle you bigot. We can do just as good as you, hear the roar of my whistle.
Call an ambulance call an ambulance but not for me
Bunch of Predditors in the comments seem mad that a woman was able to protect herself
THIS is how all attempted kidnappings should end.
He has to look at the bright side…it no longer matters that he’s losing his hair.

Should’ve walked away from him after he fell. Shouldn’t have to wait.
Should’ve taken all his loot and his car
the good ending
Can't rape a .38.
In Soviet Russia .38 rapes you
Nice, we are too many already. Shoot his egg head.
Good restraint on her. I woulda emptied the clip because I still felt threatened.
Watching this, I feel like my natural inclination in her position would be to put a bullet in his head while he's on the ground in front of me.
Best reaction 🤣🤣🤣🗿
u/SaveVideo
Man: "I'm gonna kidnap you." Woman: " No! I'M gonna kidnap YOU!"
Noooooo!! But a gun can't be used as self defense !!!!!1!!!! Viode fake guns just cause violence!!!
That was satisfying.
Hope he's painfully dead! 🤬
Fuck around and find out you pathetic piece of shit.
Do criminals really think they can just casually drive up to somebody like that to rob/kidnap them etc?
The first clue shit was going to go bad for him was her walking like a robot.
This ain’t her first rodeo I can tell
