Not that the powers-that-be will recognize it. Massage business customer shoots would-be robber in Riverside - ABC7 Los Angeles
The incident happened shortly before 10 p.m. at E-Joy Foot And Body Massage, according to Riverside Police Department.
The customer opened fire after two men broke in and tried to rob the establishment, police said. Authorities initially identified the shooter as an employee.
At least one of the robbers was armed, and he dropped his firearm when he got shot.
Cops found him nearby, and took him to a local hospital. The other guy got away.
Even the cops are starting to recognize that sometimes, you can't just "give them what they want" and "hope for the best."
"Just like when you're inside your own home or a business, if harm's way comes to you, you do have a right to defend yourself if you or others are at risk of serious bodily harm or even death," Officer Ryan Railsback, spokesman for the Police Department, said.
Though he does walk that back a bit in favor of the "be a good witness" BS. (Be a meek victim.)
Self-defense is a human-right. (Hat tip to Red State.)
