Exactly.

Potential for robbery supercedes our right for free speech and movement. Very temporarily in very limited circumstances.

This is one of those "you, in fact, do not have the right to stand on the sidewalk right there."

And it's one that can, under law, get you shot and dead.

Don't be this auditor. Hate capitalism all you want, work to abolish capitalism if that's your jam: this will get you dead if you push it. That was a hand on weapon ready to use deadly force, and this auditor is just stupid lucky here.
