You are in a bank - it is being robbed - what do you do?

[Iamforever]

Sorry.

It's just an old pic of a Colt 1911 0.45 caliber semi-automatic pistol.

EDIT: Feed your curiosity here...

cheers,

even still, how did you get the dude to give up? if someone tried to pull a citizen's arrest, i would laugh in their face. thats the angle i am coming from. gun or not, i have a lawsuit. and they gave up. you must be one mean guy. i can picture it now. you are what i want to be. you are a real live batman, roughneck. maybe more like wolverine since you went heads up. dont take this the wrong way, but i look up to you. you and axxxc. :thumbsup:

if they are robbing the bank then, like others have said, i would not interfere - bank gets its money back from insurance/re-insurance. if they are robbing me personally ("give me your wallet!" etc,) then i would be reluctant to hand over my possessions. but you never know when you stare down the barrel of a gun...

If they seem unorganized, they may be nervous enough to accidentally harm or kill someone. So I would no way attack them. I'd try to memorize as many details as possible (height, weight, voices, clothes etc.) of the men so that police can get them quickly.

:hatsoff: Jackson

Hell, I'd just assume the fetal postition, and await the calvary.

 

[beelzebuddy]

Shit i'd love to say I'd be all bruce willis and take them down.

BOLLOCKS to that, wouldn;t know where to start sit it out and see what happens, would I join in if i saw someone else making a move to take them down......possibly hopefully I never have to find out.

Jack Bauer and reality

However, I realise I'm no Jack Bauer and will probably get killed...

Jack Bauer lives in a fantasy world where little ploys seem to work against the dumbest of terrorists.
Sorry, tried to watch 24 a couple of times and I just have to shake my head at some of the plots.

Asian hit it on the nose, you don't fuck with people who don't want to be fucked with.

If they are harming innocents, I think it becomes about far more than just one person rising up though.
But most robers aren't dumb enough to make everyone feel threatened.
Because then it becomes only one recourse for everyone.

 

[Roughneck]

Speaking of threats...

Now that's what I call Gun "control" :rofl:

 

[Neromak]

Nothing.

I'm not risking my life for money that's insured.

"There are old Heroes and there's bold heroes but there are no old, bold heroes".

 

[L3ggy]

No one want's to be a hero but everyone needs to do some heroic action's

 

[Dro50]

Hmm I guess I wouldn't do anything but chill and take bets on whether or not the person would get out before the cops got there. Frankly I'd hope he'd get away so I don't have to be involved in some sort of hostage situation...

 

[jibbijib]

I would turn into Godzilla, and stomp on the robbers.

 

[L3ggy]

wouldn't you have to destroy the bank too?

 

[CoolTune]

I would stay quiet and down, because sometimes trying become a heroe is the worst, on movies perhaps.

 

[alexios]

If I was in a bank and it was being robbed, I would probably be doing it....so I would tell all the people to keep calm and put all their money in the bag...then I would walk out calmly and get in the running car waiting for me. :thumbsup:

 

[Gordar]

Nothing.

I automatically assume they'll have guns (even though they seem organised), your posts makes clear that there's more than 1 robber, so I wouldn't do a thing.

Since I've got nothing to lose and the bank is probably insured for cases like this (I won't start about the lack of decent security), I'd probably stay quiet and wait until the guys leave. I'd take a good look at them though (if possible), since I'd probably be questioned by the police later.

 

[D-rock]

wouldn't you have to destroy the bank too?

You can't let that technicality get in the way of Godzilla like robber stomping action. :1orglaugh

 

[georges]

I would hit one of the robber with a chair and injury then grab his gun and shoot the others.

 

[kangol]

Fuck the bank no way would i put my life on the line for there money.

 

[Member2019]

Would it not be easier ...

I would hit one of the robber with a chair and injury then grab his gun and shoot the others.

If that's the scenario, let me ponder this further ...
Would it not be easier and less dangerous to just have your own gun in the first place?

 

[JohnnyWorstcase]

I would hit one of the robber with a chair and injury then grab his gun and shoot the others.

Acting in a bit different way, I'd use the gun to shoot myself.
