Don't rob retirees in Arizona

Attempted robbery ends with victim shooting suspect

The victim said one of the suspects was armed with a handgun, which he displayed toward the victim. The victim was also armed with a legally concealed handgun, and upon being threatened, the victim and the suspect exchanged gunfire. The victim struck one of the suspects during the exchange of gunfire, at which time the suspects fled the scene.

The victim was not shot and was not injured.

I just love how the media here understands that the criminals aren't the victims, even if they get themselves shot.

EDIT: Read the comments, too. They'll make you smile.

Yes, I actually got confused reading it because I was used to seeing the opposite.

That's the whole point of constitutional carry... Well, from a practical standpoint. Obviously, the big point is from a rights perspective.
