Google Miami FBI Shootout


Don't need to.


Are you involved in containing/stopping heavily armed bank robbers? If
so, you need to be equally armed.


But if you are a private citizen, you will probably end up in jail if
you try to STOP fleeing robbers.

The point was that after the FBI put a god awful number of wounds into
those suspects (who for the most part were armed with Mini-14s) was that
the 9mm didn't have the stopping power to deal with a suspect even if
all they were hyped up on was adrenaline.

There is a reason that the US Army SF, FBI Hostage Rescue and pretty
much all major SWAT teams have switched to either the .45 or .40.


Right -- and they (all of the above) are looking for people.

YOU as a citizen are not out hunting them -- you're doing your best to
avoid a confrontation but if forced, use deadly force.

Not the same situation.
