FOMO: "Fear Of Missing Out", also commonly known as people with a mental issue of managing time and activities, many expecting others to fit into their schedule so they don't miss out on things to come. If FOMO becomes a problem for you, do seek help, it can be a very unhealthy lifestyle..
Wow that is some bad luck.
If GTA had a hardcore difficulty setting.
You have a increased chance of cutting yourself if you have a kitchen knife than if you do not.
There was a study done in 2013 by the CDC, ordered by President Obama. Their conclusion was, firearms are a important deterrent for self defense.

If the carjacker had attempted to steal my car with a knife in his hand, threatening me with it, I would have shot him the instance he tried to get inside my car.

A robber without a gun? This couldn't have happened in the US.
Good stuff should have shot him though.
Do you hear the voices too?
It can. And I do recommend those who choose not to have a firearm, to carry it for self defense. But it is not going to be as effective at stopping a deadly threat as a firearm. Pepper spray is dependent on a lot of outside your control factors. Such as wind, how far the target is and if the target is high on drugs or is armed also.
Tasers are well known to have a failure rate which would be unacceptable for myself at least. They also are dependent on what the person is wearing and some people simply are not effected by them as others are. Many videos are easy to find on YouTube of this.

While you're right, but if both people had firearms then we'll have a standoff and some people might get caught in the crossfire. Kinda lucky the thief couldn't afford a gun.
I would hope that a taser or pepper spray is enough to deter people from continuing the attack. This man just went to another victim which also happened to have a gun. Unless your intent is to kill, that person will continue his objective until stopped.Tasers are well known to have a failure rate which would be unacceptable for myself at least.

Firearms do present the higher chance of unintentional deadly harm from them. But they also can give the wielder a more equal chance to defend themselves against a stronger or armed attacker. Firearms can deter a crime and do often. Tasers and pepper spray can also. But those have limitations that are not present with a firearm. But they do offer a non lethal way to protect yourself. And if I have to shoot my firearm at a attacker, the goal is not to kill them, but to stop them. Most firearm shootings, do not end in the death of the attacker.

Not to mention Walmart. That combination alone greatly increases the chance of people conceal carrying.

Well you stop them by killing them. Center mass 3-5 rounds and sometimes that isn't enough https://www.gunsamerica.com/blog/the...riggernometry/

Do people in Florida not lock the doors on their cars?

Or that adults with gun handling skills can defend themselves if given the tools to do so?
If you're worried about the kids perhaps start with the stuff that actually kills them at rates hundreds of times more than an accidental discharge of a firearm? Like poisoning or drowning.

lol, right?
Walmart + Florida = chances of someone carrying a firearm are going to be way higher than trying to carjack someone outside a Whole Foods.
