Yeah, I bet all of those people who are getting attacked by dogs, rapists, etc are thinking “I’m glad I don’t have a gun right now, I’d hate to offend Pending Approval on Lifehacker. This life changing pain is worth it”.

Well once I start trying to bite you to death, feel free to shoot me. I rather like all of my limbs in tact. If that makes me a pussy, so be it, but at least I will still have all of my fingers to flip you off.

Because nothing says “We’re here to serve and protect the community” like a police car you can’t see.
