Because the guys in the black Range Rover would have been concerned that everyone else would have guns, and would return fire.

Insanity. How many more dead people before it's enough?

I guess we just aren't armed enough.

Cabs should be equipped with gun turrets.

Checkers

I remember as kid seeing one that a guy had stolen and the police chased him. He swerved at the downhill section in front of our house, hit the curb and some rocks and went airborne, sliced clean thru a large hemlock and crashed into a neighbor's stone gate...and the guy got out and ran off. Those were some tough taxis!

that the convenient accessibility of guns and the innocent mission they have ( that of being primarily for paper target perforation), will make their part in this shootout, merely coincidental. AND.... of course.... if there'd been a gun in the hands of everyone involved (as well as any bystanders), NONE of this would've happened.

incredible coverage just from casino security cameras alone. There's probably 200 angles of the crash in high definition video. Right?
